Learning from post-9/11 America

In today’s newsletter, we take a look at the ways in which we are and aren’t allowed to talk about Palestine and Israel, marvel at the work of Icelandic people, and share some fun listening. 

Remember when we had a House Speaker?

In today’s newsletter, we check in on what’s happening in the House, discover a frightening new domestic violence statistic, and share what we’ve been watching to quiet our minds. 

An escalating humanitarian crisis

In today’s newsletter, we try to answer a question many have had over the last few days: How can we help? (It’s not simple.) And we bring you updates from the rest of the world. 

Can a start-up have a soul?

In today’s newsletter, a change of pace—what we learned from the wise speakers at Work Shift—and some weekend reads to help you stay informed.
