Freethinker
Hall of Famer
That is sad news to discover. I read Jim a great deal during his Taki Mag days. He was a hilarious writer that never produced a dull article. An Everyman on The Right, who could provide a much needed distraction from all of the academic essays from conservative or libertarian eggheads. His cultural critiques were scathing but enjoyable reads. I’ll miss him, as well as Z-Man (died too young also) and Fred Reed who also were great at “telling it like it is” in simple terms.Jim Goad was a unique and very talented writer who took up for the White working class and was always worth a read. He died recently from cancer at the age of 65. This is Greg Johnson's tribute to him for those who did and didn't know Jim Goad. RIP:
