The music festival All Things Go took place on Saturday and Sunday in Maryland and New York. Chappell Roan, a major draw, dropped out at the last minute — but other performers made up for it. Artists like MUNA, Reneé Rapp, and Janelle Monáe proved that other queer artists deserve the spotlight, too. AdvertisementOn Sunday evening, MUNA welcomed the crowd at Maryland's Merriweather Post Pavilion to All Things Go Music Festival, which the group lovingly dubbed "Lesbopalooza." At least one person was in full Lady Liberty drag, emulating Roan's onstage look at Governors Ball in June.

In Muna Jondy’s family, every topic is fair game on the WhatsApp thread. The 40-person chat, which includes Ms. Jondy’s brothers, sisters, nieces and nephews, discusses everything: the Drake and Kendrick Lamar rivalry, Ohio State-Michigan football superiority and, of course, politics. The discussion of President Biden’s re-election campaign was a common theme this year as the administration’s support for Israel in the war in Gaza alienated many Muslim and Arab American families, including the Jondys. But the mood shifted when Mr. Biden dropped out of the race and Vice President Kamala Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee. The family took notice last week when Ms. Harris said she would not look away from images of dead children or be silent about the tragedies in Gaza.

True Direction's founder, Mary, insulates herself from reality in the artificial setting that she's built for traditional gender roles. “I just love the cult following that it’s had,” Friedberg said in the call with Babbit and Kamerman. Despite the film’s barriers, Babbit, Friedberg and Kamerman are all pleased with its longevity, particularly as they’ve seen it gain cachet with an entirely new generation this past decade. “We were just making our weirdo indie film of queer joy and female power in a vacuum.”

"It is with sadness that we announce the transition into eternal glory of John Fru Ndi on June 12, 2023, at 11:30 p.m.," it said. "I salute the memory of a singular, charismatic and courageous leader," said current opposition leader Maurice Kamto. An English-speaking businessman from Cameroon's northwest region, Fru Ndi formed the SDF, the first opposition party in the bilingual Central African country, which is dominated by its French-speaking majority. Fru Ndi claimed the vote had been rigged and he was placed under house arrest as riots swept opposition strongholds. As Biya's grip on power tightened, Fru Ndi secured fewer votes, according to official figures.

US officials have said they are in “close communication” with US citizens and “actively facilitating” their departure from Sudan. Those who spoke to CNN also pushed back on the argument made by US officials that they had warned Americans not to be in Sudan. Other Americans are attempting to flee Sudan through Egypt, but those who spoke to CNN warned of a growing humanitarian catastrophe at that border. After a 36-hour journey, his parents had not been able to cross the border into Egypt, Imad told CNN Wednesday evening. Imad said when he contacted the State Department, “they essentially said that there are other cases ahead of us that are similar.

Is it the best song on Haim’s sprawling and fantastic 2020 album “Women in Music Part III”? Even though she was born in 2000, “Care” shows how intuitively she understands something about the sort of scuzzy, anthemic indie-pop that underground labels like Slumberland Records were releasing in the ’90s. (A “Best of Slumberland Records” playlist in a future installment of The Amplifier? Muna featuring Phoebe Bridgers: “Silk Chiffon”Two Eras Tour openers for the price of one!
