Resources & Reading
Our curated launch pad for going deeper.
This page gathers primary documents, books, papers, lectures, documentaries, datasets, and tools that inform our work. Everything is tagged, lightly annotated, and grouped so you can move from curiosity to credible sources without the noise. This library is being built out now with new shelves added weekly.
What you will find
- Primary sources: government docs, FOIA releases, witness transcripts, field data.
- Scholarship: peer-reviewed papers, academic lectures, credible analyses.
- Books and longform: foundational texts and balanced dissenting views.
- Watch and listen: documentaries, talks, interviews worth your time.
- Tools: archives, databases, and methods for doing your own research.
How we choose sources
- Evidence first: primary over secondary whenever possible.
- Context matters: we include informed skepticism alongside claims.
- Clear notes: each item gets a short “why it matters” and any known caveats.
- No blanket endorsements: inclusion signals relevance, not agreement.
