The Lawn Chair Philosophy Foundation

CAUTION: SITE UNDER CONSTRUCTION!

When done right, academic philosophy can be a powerful resource for self-reflection, self-expression, and self-advocacy. Its emphasis on faithful, rigorous study of the foundations of truth and authentic meaning and a critical engagement with the world around us encourage a life-long love of learning and personal growth.

However, the best academic resources in philosophy are often out of reach. University enrollment and study materials are too expensive. Lectures are often delivered from on high, failing to meet students where they are. Teaching methods are often prescriptive, viewing certain outlooks and colloquial manners of expressing oneself as “less than” and needing correction. And study time and attention are limited resources for most folks who work.

We here at the Lawn Chair Philosophy Foundation have made it our mission to render academic philosophy more accessible to those with little access to its cognitive benefits and vast educational resources, especially vulnerable populations who could benefit from it most.
