It is rather tempting for philosophers, and I know this from experience, to reduce the topic of “Public Political Philosophy” to a “what” question and a “how” question. Or, if you prefer, to a question of definition and a question of method. Here, by contrast, I focus on the “who” of it. Who are you to be doing it, and, more importantly, who are you going to be doing it with? This matters because, when trying to do anything along these lines, the one thing I know for sure is that you will not be doing it alone.
