Matthew D. Atkinson is an Associate Professor in the History and Political Science Department at Long Beach City College. He teaches classes on democratic theory, social movements, and global studies. The Expanse inspired him to find ways of incorporating science fiction into the global studies curriculum—a development that has met with a great deal of student enthusiasm.
Lisa Wenger Bro is a Professor of English at Middle Georgia State University who specializes in postmodernism and speculative fiction. Prioritizing, she’s managed to frame and hang an “Evolution of the Cylon” poster in her office but not her actual degree. She’s written and published a lot of essays and articles with semicolons in the titles and also co‐edited Monsters of Film, Fiction, and Fable: The Cultural Links between the Human and Inhuman. Her current work explores class, capitalism, and biopolitics in science fiction. She’s also exactly like Amos—she likes peaches, doesn’t mind long hikes through nature, and is never quite sure which way’s right.
Eric Chelstrom is Associate Professor of Philosophy at St. Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas. His research is primarily in social philosophy and phenomenology.

Like Holden, he finds joy in a quality cup
