Dan McKee

DaN McKee is an anarchist, atheist, punk rock teacher of philosophy and religion who lives in the West Midlands with his wife, his cat, and way too many books. He is the author of "Anarchist, Atheist, Punk Rock Teacher: A Memoir of Struggle, Grief, Philosophy and Hope" and "Authentic Democracy: An Ethical Justification of Anarchism". He teaches Philosophy and Religious Studies to 11-18 year olds in a thinly veiled attempt to subvert the system from within and nudge the next generation into becoming more critical thinkers and has published academic philosophy papers on anarchism, education, punishment, and punk. Back in the day, when he wasn't writing angry political columns for UK 'zines Scanner, Fracture, and Mass Movement, he was bassist and singer/songwriter in UK punk bands Academy Morticians and Bullet of Diplomacy. These days he releases music under the name Strangely Shaped By Fathers and saves his angry political columns for his two websites: Philosophy Unleashed and EverythingDaNMcKee.
