'My ancestry is the history of me, and I’m very interested in that. I always come from the perspective of being a Black woman in America— that’s my story, at all times of my life.' RIP Faith Ringgold interviewmagazine.com/art/faith-ring…

Sitting in Judge Higginbotham’s class with Alvin Bragg 30 years ago, or better yet having met him 34 yrs ago cdnt have imagined he would be on the cover of The NY Times Magazine and I would have an article inside the same issue…time is surely something else…

Among the things I wish had made it into my profile of Suzan Lori Parks was my discussion of her mother’s Texas roots, the fact that a florist gave us roses, and her clever jokes about senses. And discussion of her excellent novel, Getting Mother’s Body. She contains multitudes!

There’s a book to be written about Black political and civic associations using the terms National and American to define their organizations during Jim Crow…

And Lift Every Voice and Sing was referred to as the “Negro National Hymn” over a decade before the Star Spangled Banner was named the US National Anthem.

Gaza’s al-Shifa Hospital is now completely out of service. These are the scenes of destruction left behind after Israeli forces withdrew from the facility.

Social scientists leading public use data sets explain that my colleague Christina Cross is following good scientific practice in describing the datasets she uses. To call this anything other than good practice is a marker of scientific ignorance, intentional slander, or both.
