Why this feed is different
News can add color to a mentor profile, but it cannot prove a private motive or manufacture a principle. Every card keeps those layers visibly separate.
The mentor must be a current subject, not a namesake or passing mention.
Dates, attribution, corrections, and sensitive claims must pass hard gates.
Connections use documented stories or principles—or stay factual when none fit.
Choose mentors for your Board and ask what their documented work helps illuminate.
