The Dead Don't Need Reminding won the 2025 Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters Prize in Life Writing! Whipping back home in the dark and rain, thunder rolled almost gentle in the distance. I like to think it was my great grandfather above me with a chuckle that stretched for miles

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid
