Killing and kidnapping people is wrong.

Bombing and starving civilians is wrong.

Biden’s policy on Gaza is wrong.

Trump and the antidemocratic billionaires he fronts are wrong.

Antisemitism is wrong.

Cheering lustily for young people to be murdered and brutalized is wrong.

We need to consider what might be lost in rush to shutdown protests.
For democracy, the right to protest isn’t merely a virtuous talking point for politicians. It is as essential as the vote if we are to hold power to account

Many large news organizations as well as smaller, nonprofit startups, were well-represented in Monday’s Pulitzer Prize winners. But as Rick Edmonds notes, for-profit metro newspapers and their digital sites were virtually shut out this year.
