    Good morning, heroines and heroes of the literary world. This is your daily reminder that writing is hard. And raw. And worth it.

    Researchers at our think this woman may be Sarah Loguen Fraser. She was one of about 115 African American women doctors in the U.S. in the 1890s—though African American midwives assisted in most births in the South before the 20th century.

    A tintype portrait of a woman, likely a doctor or possibly a nurse or midwife, carrying a medical bag. The woman is standing tall at the center of the image, looking directly at the camera. She carries a medical bag in her proper left hand.

    🚨: Colorado's Senate has voted to abolish the death penalty. The bill is expected to do well in the House. (The Senate proved to be the obstacle last year.) Colorado is well on its way to becoming the 22nd state to abolish the DP.

  9. Never assume that the mom waiting for her kid to get out of dance class and being “antisocial” with the help of headphones and laptop, or thumbs flying on her phone, isn’t a journalist on deadline or responding to edits. We don’t all wear capes (or work in fancy newsrooms)

  11. One of the few benefits of living in our era is seeing people reach for more and more dramatic words to describe the State of Things. Today alone, I've read fealty, sanctimony, feckless and belabored. Our lives may be moribund, but our prose becomes ever livelier

    Hey . We were grateful for the story about the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz to listen to on the ride to school today. If we heard correctly, neither of the survivors you profiled were Jewish. My 12-year old is wondering why.

    Thank you so much! Beating Back the Devil (my account of the CDC’s disease-detective force, the Epidemic Intelligence Service) is especially relevant right now — because the year I embedded with them happened to be the year they went to SARS, and I went with them.

  15. And that's what the Holocaust should be—unforgettable. I hope our historical memory and attention can expand beyond Holocaust Remembrance Day and anniversary years that end with 5s or 0s. I hope we can continue to confront the inconceivable and follow through on what we know.

  16. Finally, I would like to leave you with a thread I wrote after my second day at Auschwitz. The very generously invited me and a group of journalists to tour the camps and learn more about their vital work. It was unforgettable.

  17. I am so fortunate to have written this much about the Holocaust, and I will continue with that work. Among my favorite work on such a terrible subject is my writing about Anne Frank:

  20. Meanwhile, debates rage about remembrance and ownership of that history. Mounting anti-Semitism in Eastern Europe is making that conversation more and more complicated.
