A girl, a diagnosis, and the vivid dreams that come with treatment…where fear and pain become an aria.

OUR NEW STORY IS OUT
Quaking Time
In this story, Laura Mafizzoli, through the hypnotic curves of Georgian calligraphy, opens a Pandora’s box of contested memory: what happens when the memories of the past contradict what we were taught about it?

"Over the last eight years, I have crisscrossed the United States as an anthropologist, trying to make sense of why the rifts in our national culture run so deep."

As walls threaten to close in around her, @Odelia_Younge takes (two-wheeled) flight.
"I would say to myself, 'One day…'/ But that day never came"

I talked with USA Today about my new book Something Between Us: the divides baked into our social lives and everyday infrastructures in the United States, but also the role of commons and shared public space in deepening the quality of our collective life.

do you see @OtherwiseMag in your feed? Has the algorithm of oppression that governs this platform made it invisible?

Training (sun)glasses
In this story @aizuddin_anuar watches humanity flicker in and out of view.
He perches/ his sunglasses on/ his forehead

Baltimore folks! We'll be launching my new book, Something Between Us, at Red Emma's Bookstore in Baltimore next Tuesday, May 27th. I'll be talking about the book with investigative journalist Sonia Shah, author most recently of The Next Great Migration. Please join us!

How did we get here?
How did we let an army announce to the world the destruction of a people, and then level every home, seize every field, shatter every possession they had—even with laughter.
How did we let them kidnap, torture, and rape—even with dogs.
And now, starve them—even the children.
And what unshakable belief blinds us to what we—collectively—have done.
May they have mercy.

Storytelling is our way of staying with the trouble, a way to find the multiple ways we are connected and related and, also, reshape those connections and relations that make our present world unsustainable.

Ecco la mia nuova creatura. Spero che leggerlo sia tanto catartico quanto per me è stato scriverlo. Ringrazio la Rizzoli per la cura e la delicatezza.
📚 Da oggi disponibile in prevendita, e dal 27 maggio in libreria (e solo se le gambe non vi assistono, online).

This is Hossam’s team, and we are sharing his final message :
“If you’re reading this, it means I have been killed—most likely targeted—by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old—a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life to my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tents—anywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my people’s side.
By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I risked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at rest—something I haven’t known in the past 18 months . I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serving its people.
I ask you now: do not stop speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free.”
— For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza.
