Quillette is a website committed to free thought.

Quillette began in Claire Lehmann’s living room in 2015. Claire had recently dropped out of her graduate program in psychology and wished to create a space for academics to publish their ideas.

Quillette’s first contributors included Associate professor Brian Boutwell and documentary Film-maker Jamie Palmer.

Quillette is funded through reader donations collected through Patreon. ^[1]
