This is Ed Murrow’s famous speech. In it, he calls for complex and layered portrait and coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. rtdna.org/murrows-famous…

I always shook my head when people would tell me to stay in my lane. They never did any background search to see what topics I had written about or what work I had done. All they saw was the number of social media followers, as if obscure people couldn't develop mastery in

The other thing is that I'm part of a shrinking section of the population that realizes we're not famous. No one would recognize me walking down the street. But if someone has even 10,000 followers on Instagram, they act like they're celebrities. They would be as unrecognizable

Greeks and Irish people are at their core meritocratic. Neither believed in nepotism. People became leaders and had opportunities because of their own skill and cunning. It was the reason that they believed in democracy. They didn't think powerful positions should be filled

Standing in the cradle of the ancient Olympic Games, it’s easy to imagine the roar of the crowd and the heartbeat of agon — the Greek word for contest or struggle. Every race, every throw, every feat of strength was more than a bid for victory; it was a living expression of

Today I visited the Agora in Athens—the very heart of ancient public life, where philosophy, politics, and everyday conversation intertwined. Standing among the columns and stones, I found myself remembering the long hours I once spent, at twenty-three, tracing every word of

Visiting the ruins of Ephesus felt like walking through time — a city where Roman engineering, Greek artistry, and early Christian history all meet in one breathtaking place. I stood in front of the Library of Celsus, its marble façade still towering in elegance after nearly two

Standing inside the medieval citadel of Lindos, I thought of St. Paul, who once sought refuge on this island as he carried a message that shook empires. From the inlet below — now called St. Paul’s Bay — he came ashore, a prisoner of faith but free in spirit. Here, he would

During my travels through Santorini and Crete, I was completely taken aback by the island culture that thrives there. From the moment the ferry docked, it felt like stepping into another world — one where whitewashed houses cling to cliffs and every turn opens to a new vista of

There are those who have turned faith into a chain—binding love, desire, and the body itself as though these were crimes against heaven. But I have never believed that the Creator despised His own masterpiece. If God made us in His image, He also gave us the capacity to love not

The other issue I have with Ezra Klein is that he writes the manner in which Democrats should seize power and campaign, but then he doesn't give any of them the sense of purpose behind it. It's thoroughly uninspiring to women to tell them not to fight for abortion access in Texas

You want to know what I think about building support for the Democratic Party? How about actually giving a shit if young people are happy? How about actually lifting a damn finger to help instead of saying keep at it? How about we lead them and don’t begrudge them all the joys

One reason I've resisted the idea of running antiabortion Democrats in places like Texas is that it's essentially surrendering on the issue. Would you gain seats in Congress or in the state legislature? Maybe. But you're giving up on women and feminist leaders in doing so.

What if every city could be fully covered — every meeting, every vote, every dollar — without needing a big newsroom budget? Here’s the idea: Cities could mandate by law that all public meetings be recorded and uploaded, all public records be digitally accessible within 24
