Hello there!
Just a quick note to let you know that
Issue 25, "The None and the Many," is up now online, featured prominently on our brand new shiny website that contains *all* of our
archives, going all the way back to 1988.
"The None and the Many," our silver jubilee issue, starts off with a proverbial bang with "Pistols for Two," an exchange between
David Graeber and Thomas Piketty on capital, debt, and the future.
Thomas Frank looks the Masons and Rotarians in the eye, and
Natasha Vargas-Cooper considers the meaning of a president's posterior.
Nicholson Baker provides us with a meta-review of more than a dozen JFK-assassination books, and emerges from all his reading with his own arresting theory intact.
Jacob Silverman travels back in time to visit some like-minded subversives from the cusp of the Information Revolution, and
Jason Linkins does us the favor of immersing himself in countless hours of cable TV news, so we don't have to, thank heavens.
Tom Gogola reports from Baton Rouge, Louisiana's segregation movement, and
Astra Taylor from a worker-owned manufacturing plant in Chicago, while
Helaine Olen sends updates from Venice, California's "coolest block in America," and
Daniel Brook experiences the gospel of wealth from the perspective of the direst slums of India.And there's so, so much more.
Once you've perused our newest material, dive into the
archives, enjoy our
art gallery, read our new and improved
daily blog, and learn more about the upcoming eight-city book tour that we've got planned to celebrate the forthcoming Baffler anthology
No Future For You.We'd love to hear what you think of all this, dear readers; please direct all of your feedback, questions, and rants to our
contact page. And thanks, you know, for sticking by us for a quarter of a goddamned century.
Sincerely,
The Editors
