It went across all visual types.”Elizabeth Alexander recites a poem during President Obama's swearing-in ceremonies at the US Capitol on January 20, 2009. She had grown up in DC, and that inauguration day was a homecoming for her. “I’m sure that some people expected too much,” says Wear, the former Obama campaign worker, of Obama’s vision. The fact of the matter is, that (inauguration) day happened, and millions of people were there. We will have a better idea on another inauguration day — in January of 2025.

☆ Opinion | How to Thrive in an Uncertain World
  + stars: | 2024-01-13 | by ( Maggie Jackson | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
A close friend’s daughter was getting married in the pandemic summer of 2021. “We can’t invite friends to the wedding,” in order to keep it small and safe, my pal told me. But she did invite friends, I learned from a Facebook post. And when I tried to discuss the widening rift, she called a “pause” in our relations by text and stopped reaching out for a year. But after a time I asked myself if I really knew what had happened and what she had meant by excluding me.

☆ Bayard Rustin biopic spotlights organizer of the March on Washington

“Rustin,” a biopic that depicts how Rustin navigated a gantlet of personal and political hurdles to pull off the March on Washington, debuts on Netflix today. Rustin was the “glue guy” leader for the civil rights movement. Colman Domingo, center, as Bayard Rustin in "Rustin," which premiered Nov. 17 on Netflix after a brief run in theaters. Colman Domingo as Bayard Rustin exhorts young civil rights volunteers in a scene from "Rustin." Some of that patriotism may seem naïve now, but it furnished the civil rights movement with tremendous vitality.

☆ Some of the Books That Hernan Diaz Owns Surprise Even Him

Scott, Deborah Eisenberg, Paul Yoon, Ottessa Moshfegh, Michael Ondaatje, Louise Erdrich, Colson Whitehead, Sigrid Nunez, Jean Strouse, Lorrie Moore. The novel contains four different books, written by different fictional authors in disparate genres and styles. “Trust” closes with a personal diary that is also a sort of a prose poem and a love letter to modernism. While writing this, I read and revisited authors as different as Jean Rhys, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Townsend Warner, Dawn Powell, Theodor Adorno and Gertrude Stein. Wodehouse section of my library and can report that I’ve read 29 of his books.
☆ Beyond Catastrophe: A New Climate Reality Is Coming Into View

Beyond Catastrophe A New Climate Reality Is Coming Into View By David Wallace-WellsYou can never really see the future, only imagine it, then try to make sense of the new world when it arrives. (A United Nations report released this week ahead of the COP27 climate conference in Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt, confirmed that range.) A little lower is possible, with much more concerted action; a little higher, too, with slower action and bad climate luck. There were climate-change skeptics in some very conspicuous positions of global power. New emissions peaks are expected both this year and next, which means that more damage is being done to the future climate of the planet right now than at any previous point in history.
