Much like its indifference toward soccer, America’s aversion to public transport has made it a global anomaly, an oddity encapsulated by the nation’s sacred pre-game pastime: the tailgate. Here in the US, celebrating sports means driving your big car to a colossal suburban gridiron football stadium, where you’ll grill, baby, grill until the smoky scents […] Read more ›

It’s been just over a year since a gunman in Minnesota attacked two Democratic state lawmakers and their families in their homes — killing state Rep.

In less than a week, two people have died during encounters with ICE — one in Texas and another in Maine.

I don’t do well with stress. Even minor inconveniences can throw me off my game, turning a mildly bad day into a complete five-alarm fire. If someone asks a single thing of me during one of these spirals, I’m likely to blow up. Whether you’ve woken up on the wrong side of the bed or […] Read more ›

I used to think I could change the world. More than that: because I could, I felt the responsibility to do it. I was 22 when I helped lead a delegation of young people to the United Nations.

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama — On a sweltering afternoon in June, I stood in what was essentially a roadside ditch. Sandwiched between a four-lane highway and the parking lot of a faith-based recreation center near Birmingham, the ditch was filled with cool, flowing water, a bit of trash, and, apparently, some highly endangered fish. Jeffrey Drummond, a […] Read more ›
