As the shortest kid in school, I was an easy target for bullies. When I was about eight, I befriended a kind teenager who looked out for me. 60 years ago, he was murdered by the Klan for registering Black voters in Mississippi. Let me tell you about my friend, Mickey.

U.N. says Israel’s aid blockade has opened ‘floodgates of horror’ in Gaza

U.N. Secretary General António Guterres, in some of his strongest language on the crisis so far, described Gaza as “a killing field.” Israel accused him of “spreading slander.”

Biden-voting counties equal 70% of America’s economy. What does this mean for the nation’s political-economic divide?

“We watch in horror. Entire families die in their beds under Israel’s bombs. Apartment blocks, schools, hospitals, churches and mosques, markets are leveled. Relief and food convoys are denied entry at the Egypt border.”

I tend to gravitate towards books with heavy themes...but I think I may have taken on a little too much this time. I've started reading When Broken Glass Floats by Chanrithy Him, but at 100 pages in there's been so many deaths and I'm scared to continue.

What's your most recent book you had to put down for a while to give yourself space from the tragedy or trauma? Which book did you turn to instead?
