Here's what others have to say about La Duke:

“Chris Rock once said: "You can only offend me if you mean something to me". Phil's writing doesn’t pull punches and may be a bit like someone swinging a bag of broken glass in a crowded room but if his words cut deep and gouge a lot of nerves it’s only because he has the insight and courage to articulate what many of us are thinking and, for the rest, still struggling with weird feelings, he puts his gnarly finger right on it.

It’s a perspective you won’t find anywhere else.”—Dave Johnson, Editor. ISHN magazine
