In “Forest Euphoria,” Patricia Ononiwu Kaishian introduces readers to the queerness of all the life around us.
In snakes, snails, and, above all, fungi, she saw her own developing identities as a queer, neurodivergent person reflected back at her — and in them, too, she found a personal path to a life of science.
Nature, Kaishian shows us, is filled with the unusual, the overlooked, and the marginalized — and they have lessons for us all.
Dorothy A. Brown’s “Getting to Reparations” makes a logical and necessary case for reparations to atone for America’s original sin of slavery. It lays out a path as to how this might be achieved, built on the frameworks used throughout US history by the government to pay restitution. The idea of reparations is not a new or original one; it is one that is baked into American history and it is now time to do the same for America’s Black population.
