“Vision” can come in many different forms. Meet Lina Khan.
A few years ago I started teaching people how to develop vision skills. Intuition and vision don’t have to mean an intuitive with a YouTube channel. It’s a skill that can, and has been applied, in so many other fields.
One can argue that business, science, literature, many fields, owe to non-linear, intuitive insight, many of their most important discoveries and inventions.
Many well-known figures have pursued a vision that didn't exist until they manifested change in the world through their ideas.
Vision and intuition is part of how people create change even in conservative fields like law.
Lina Khan represents visionary change. A massive paradigm shift. It takes vision and commitment and integrity to see it through. She is points towards a new reading of anti-trust law that turns the pages of history onto a new era where corporate power will be challenged. Just as it was challenged in the aftermath of the Great Depression.
This event was actually recorded. It’s a podcast and you can listen to it.

On June 01, I stopped by a bookstore to attend the public taping of an interview with Lina Khan, the head of the Federal Trade Commission. The man on the right is a venture capitalist and famously Andrew Yang’s backer during the heated NYC Mayoral election back in 2021
I have been reading about Lena for a few years. This wonderful profile from The New Yorker explains her brilliance, insights and vision. Lina Khan’s Battle to Rein in Big Tech: As monopolies and other large companies gain increasing control of our daily lives, Khan is Joe Biden’s pick to do something about it.
Lina Khan first became known for a 2017 article she wrote for the Yale Law Journal, called “Amazon’s Antitrust Paradox.” Then a twenty-seven-year-old law student, she made strong arguments in favor of regulating Big Tech companies. The article established Khan as a central figure in a new generation of antitrust activists, who say that the government has been complicit in corporate consolidation, and see a lack of regulation as contributing to social and economic disparities. Earlier this year, President Biden appointed Khan to be the chair of the Federal Trade Commission, which enforces federal antitrust law Source ( New Yorker non paywall )
