“Famine has begun,” as if hunger has descended from the sky, like a natural disaster making landfall.

Who created the famine? Who is massacring Palestinians at aid distribution sites? Who is starving Gaza? You won’t find many answers in the pages of the The New York Times.

There is such warmth that Hanif Abdurraqib brings to all his writing, and it's present in his interviews, too. I love this dialogue between him and Shereen Lee in Hazlitt––a small but rich discussion about so much more than his wonderful new book: hazlitt.net/feature/grief-…
