Dass Deutschland ein Land ist, das von Vielfalt geprägt wird, ist unbestreitbar. Und dennoch erleben Eingewanderte und ihre Nachkommen täglich Ablehnung und Benachteiligung, sei es auf der Suche nach einer Wohnung, bei Bewerbungsgesprächen oder bei der Fahrscheinkontrolle. Es ist schockierend, wie stark Rassismus immer noch den deutschen Alltag durchzieht. Gleichzeitig sind solche Erfahrungen schwer nachzuempfinden, wenn man sie nicht selbst erlebt hat. Umso wichtiger ist es, Geschichten Betroffener zu erzählen, um die Gesellschaft zu sensibilisieren und Veränderung möglich zu machen.

Developed as the commercial hub of the Texas cotton and sugarcane industries, Houston was designed for profit, not stability. Its first residents razed swamplands into submission to construct a maze of highways and suburbs, giving the city a sprawling, centerless energy as storms and floods rattled coastal Texas. When Hurricane Harvey made landfall in 2017, Fields set off from his home in Iowa back to the battered city of his childhood to rescue his mother. Fields tracks the devastation of Hurricane Harvey, one storm in a long lineage that threatens the fourth largest city in America.

On January 22, 1973, the United States Supreme Court released two interlocked abortion decisions overturning the laws of all the individual states. Only one of the decisions, Roe v. Wade, tends to get much media attention, and it is popularly said that it grants a "woman's right to choose". But Justice Blackmun is in several places very adamant: Though it had been explicitly sought, he was not granting to women the "right to choose". In Doe v. Bolton, the second and often unexamined companion decision, Blackmun is explicit. The right he is granting is to the doctor.

The U.S. Supreme Court has eliminated the right to abortion and is revisiting other fundamental questions today—about voting rights, affirmative action, gun laws, and much more.

Una delle poche cose su cui pressoché tutti gli italiani, di qualunque schieramento politico, sembrano essere d’accordo è che l’energia nucleare è una cosa brutta. Le accuse sono note a tutti: il nucleare è pericoloso, costoso, lento da implementare, produce scorie radioattive e comunque non ci serve. Ma l’accusa è solo una parte del processo: se si vuole formulare un giudizio equo, occorre ascoltare anche l’altra campana.
