Donald Trump Accepts Nomination and Attacks Biden
Giving a speech in turns self-congratulatory and alarmist, the president said that if given the chance, Joe Biden would be “the destroyer of American greatness.”
I stand before you tonight honored by your support, proud of the extraordinary progress we have made together over the last four incredible years, and brimming with confidence in the bright future we will build for America over the next four years. My fellow Americans, tonight with a heart full of gratitude and boundless optimism, I profoundly accept this nomination for president of the United States. [cheering] And yet despite all of our greatness as a nation, everything we have achieved is now in danger. This is the most important election in the history of our country. Joe Biden is not a savior of America’s soul. He is the destroyer of America’s jobs, and if given the chance, he will be the destroyer of American greatness.
Donald Trump Accepts Nomination and Attacks Biden

‘Pulling That Emergency Brake’: Newsom Announces New Virus Restrictions
Gov. Gavin Newsom of California announced on Thursday that stay-at-home orders would automatically go into effect in regions where intensive care units are close to filling up. Residents will be asked to stay home except for essential tasks. The most aggressive move the state has made since March.
The bottom line is if we don’t act now, our hospital system will be overwhelmed. If we don’t act now, we’ll continue to see a death rate climb — more lives lost. And that’s why today we are pursuant to the blueprint we put out some 14 or so weeks ago, pulling that emergency brake. Regions where the I.C.U. capacity is falling below 15 percent, we are now mandating that we are implementing a stay-at-home order for three weeks. We’ve defined these five regions: Northern California, greater Sacramento, Bay Area, San Joaquin Valley and the larger region in Southern California. As early, or rather as late as the next week or so, that the greater Sacramento, Northern California regions, as well as San Joaquin Valley and Southern California regions, will have reached that 15 percent or less I.C.U. capacity. The Bay Area may have a few extra days. Our current projections suggest mid-, maybe late, December. But all within just the next few weeks. When the region is placed in the stay-at-home category that bars, wineries, personal services, hair hair salons and the like will be temporary closed for that three-week period. There is light at the end of the tunnel. We are a few months away from truly seeing real progress with the vaccine, real distribution, real accessibility, real availability.
‘Pulling That Emergency Brake’: Newsom Announces New Virus Restrictions
Gov. Gavin Newsom of California announced on Thursday that stay-at-home orders would automatically go into effect in regions where intensive care units are close to filling up. Residents will be asked to stay home except for essential tasks. The most aggressive move the state has made since March.

They Wanted a Two-Bedroom on the Upper West Side, but How Many Stairs Are Too Many?
ByJOYCE COHENDEC. 26, 2019
Two college friends combine their budgets to find a rental in their favorite New York neighborhood. Which of these options would you choose?Related Article
Lauren Eggertsen and Robby Gouveia, close friends from their days at Pepperdine University in Malibu, Calif., were living separately in New York City when they made a pact: When their respective leases expired, they would find a place together in their favorite New York neighborhood, the Upper West Side.
Ms. Eggertsen had been the first to move to the city, three years ago, paying $1,800 a month for half of a converted one-bedroom in Stuyvesant Town. “I was far from the subway even though I could walk to my office, which was enjoyable after coming from California and sitting in traffic,” she said. But the area felt isolated and dull.
Mr. Gouveia arrived a year ago, rooming with two friends in a fourth-floor walk-up in a modern East Williamsburg building. “I wasn’t in college anymore and didn’t want to share with two guys,” he said. “I was paying just under $1,200 so I was able to save money, but Brooklyn was not the city feel I really wanted.”
This past summer, the friends, who are both in their mid-20s, were finally able to hunt together, and went looking for a sunny, spacious two-bedroom located somewhere between 60th and 96th Streets. The priority for Mr. Gouveia, who works as a leasing administrator for a Midtown rental development, was proximity to the subway. For Ms. Eggertsen, a senior fashion editor at WhoWhatWear.com, it was ample closet space.
[Did you recently buy or rent a home in the New York metro area? We want to hear from you. Email:[email protected]]
They didn’t want to walk more than two flights up. “Robby came from an insane walk-up,” Ms. Eggertsen said. “I didn’t even want to go visit him.”
Their budget topped out at $4,000 a month.
“A lot of stuff we found was in the $3,400 to $3,800 range, which is fine, but everything was really small and everything on the Upper West Side is pretty old,” Mr. Gouveia said.
They saw tiny rooms, dark spaces, cramped closets and too many stairs. “One thing was always missing from the list of items we weren’t willing to compromise on,” Ms. Eggertsen said.
To avoid a broker’s fee, they tried hunting on their own and saw what seemed like everything on the market, to no avail. “We needed extra ammunition to maybe look at places we didn’t have access to,” Mr. Gouveia said.
A church friend connected Ms. Eggertsen with Stephanie Larsen, an agent at Citi Habitats, who said she was quickly able to “rule out a lot.”
“They wanted character without it feeling dirty and dingy, which can be tricky,” Ms. Larsen said.
Among their choices:
No. 1
West 72nd Street Two-Bedroom
This apartment, on the fourth floor of a five-floor walk-up, teemed with prewar details. It had two large bedrooms — one without windows. There were high ceilings, multiple closets and a drab kitchen. It sat above a row of retail establishments and faced a sunny back courtyard. The rent was $3,850.
No. 2
West End Avenue Duplex
This fourth-floor duplex, also in a walk-up, had a brick wall and an extra half-bathroom. It included a private roof terrace with a panoramic view. The smaller bedroom was reached by a spiral staircase. The rent was $3,450.
No. 3
West 79th Street Two-Bedroom
This apartment was in a co-op building with a doorman and an elevator. The unit faced another building and had a large foyer, good closet space, a large kitchen with a dishwasher, and a bonus — a laundry room. The rent was $3,800.

Trump Addresses Vaccine Availability and Aid to Puerto Rico
President Trump amended his earlier statements, saying on Friday that the distribution of a vaccine to “every American” might not be until next year. He also announced that he would release $13 billion of aid to Puerto Rico for rebuilding its electrical grid and schools.
As part of Operation Warp Speed, my administration is manufacturing all of the most promising vaccines in advance, and actually it’ll be fairly long in advance. As soon as a vaccine is approved, the administration will deliver it to the American people immediately. Distribution will begin within 24 hours after notice, and the general — I think those are the words specifically you wanted us to use — “within 24 hours,” you’re all set to go and massive amounts will be delivered. We’ll have manufactured at least 100 million vaccine doses before the end of the year, and likely much more than that. Hundreds of millions of doses will be available every month, and we expect to have enough vaccines for every American by April. Today, my administration is making the largest emergency relief award in history to rebuild Puerto Rico’s electrical grid and educational system — we’re awarding $13 billion to permanently repair and replace thousands of miles of transmission and distribution lines that should have been done many years ago. This was beyond even the storm as it was just age and a lot of the salt, the salt from that ocean is a killer for electrical stations and power generation systems. We’re also going to be bringing back very, very major amounts of medical work. You know, you think that pharmaceutical, pharmaceutical manufacturing at levels that few places had, and a lot of it has left Puerto Rico, and we’re going to bring that back.

Coronavirus Cases Are Peaking Again. Here’s How It’s Different This Time.
ByLauren LeatherbyandCharlie SmartJuly 2, 2020
The first wave of the coronavirus outbreak in the United States never really ended, and cases are surging again. But this time, a different and much bigger swath of the country is feeling the effects.

The current surge in cases has swept through the rural South and West.

The first peak came at the beginning of April: About 30,000 cases were reported per day, but the biggest hotspots were concentrated in just a few regions. With the right steps, public health experts said, there was still a chancethe outbreak could be contained.
That didn’t happen, and new infections in the United States plateaued before roaring back again in late June as the virus spread to the rest of the country. Daily case counts are well above 30,000 now, and nearly 10 times as many counties are hotspots — where at least one person per thousand was diagnosed in the last two weeks — making the prospect of containment all the more unlikely.
Some rural counties in the South, West and Midwest, where the virus seemed like a distant threat just two months ago, are seeinghospitals approach capacityfor the first time.
The numbers of new cases in some Florida counties, including Miami-Dade and Duval, have more than tripled in the past two weeks. In Texas, more than 6,000 new cases are diagnosed every day. Hospitals in Houston are so full thatpatients are being transferredto other cities.

In New York City, meanwhile, overwhelmed hospitals saw a drop in coronavirus patients in May so sharp it was “like someone turned off the hose,” and new infections have stayed low.
The geographic shift of the outbreak also means new groups are now experiencing its effects.

In early April, most new cases were in large metro areas. The New York City area had almost half of all new cases some days. Other early outbreaks hit New Orleans and Detroit. But the current surge in cases has swept across more rural and suburban parts of the country, leaving few counties untouched in much of the South.
Some demographic trends remain the same, even as the virus spreads. People of color havedisproportionately borne the bruntfrom the beginning, and the latest spike is no different. Among the areas currently seeing a rapid increase in cases are majority-Hispanic counties along the Southern border, Native American reservations in the Southwest, and majority-Black counties in the Southeast.
But the political geography has clearly changed: Many counties where Donald Trump won in 2016 are being hit for the first time. Following months during which decisions to lock down and reopen states often fell along party lines, and wearing a face maskbecame politicized, some Republican governors haveabruptly begun imploring residents to wear masks.
The rapid spread of the virus in regions that had previously avoided much of its impact has caused some state and local governments toreverse plansto reopen.
Gov. Doug Ducey of Arizona ordered bars, gyms and other businesses in the state toclose for 30 days. The governors of Florida, Texas and California alsoreimposed restrictionson bars and other businesses after a sharp rise in cases. Even in New York City, where the reopening time frame has been more cautious, Mayor Bill de Blasioannouncedthat plans to allow indoor seating at restaurants would be delayed indefinitely.

Trump and Biden on a Coronavirus Vaccine
President Trump claimed that a vaccine for the coronavirus would be available to the public “soon,” while Joseph R. Biden Jr. expressed concern over the safety of any rapidly approved vaccine.
“He puts pressure and disagrees with his own scientists.” “But you’re saying, Senator Harris is saying you can’t trust the scientists.” “No, no, no, no — you can trust the scientists. She didn’t say that. You can trust —” “She said the public health experts, quote, will be muzzled, will be suppressed.” “Yes — well, that’s what he’s going to try to do, but there’s millions of scientists, there’s thousands of scientists out there, like here at this great hospital, that don’t work for him. Their job doesn’t depend on him. That’s not — they’re the people, and by the way —” “I spoke to the scientists that are in charge —” “— and by the way —” ”— they will have the vaccine very soon.” “Do you believe for a moment what he’s telling you, in light of all the lies he’s told you about the whole issue relating to Covid? He still hasn’t even acknowledged that he knew this was happening, knew how dangerous it was going to be back in February, and he didn’t even tell you.”

Tim Scott Makes Personal Plea to Voters at R.N.C.
Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina offered a bright vision of his party’s future in his closing remarks on the first night of the Republican National Convention.
The truth is, our nation’s arc always bends back towards fairness. We are not fully where we want to be, but I thank God Almighty we are not where we used to be. We are always striving to be better. When we stumble, and we will, we pick ourselves back up and try again. We don’t give in to cancel culture or the radical and factually baseless belief that things are worse today than in the 1860s or the 1960s. Make no mistake: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris want a cultural revolution, a fundamentally different America. If we let them, they will turn our country into a socialist utopia. And history has taught us that path only leads to pain and misery, especially for hard-working people hoping to rise. Our family went from cotton to Congress in one lifetime. And that’s why I believe the next American century can be better than the last. There are millions of families just like mine all across this nation, full of potential, seeking to live the American dream. And I’m here tonight to tell you that supporting the Republican ticket gives you the best chance of making that dream a reality.
Tim Scott Makes Personal Plea to Voters at R.N.C.
Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina offered a bright vision of his party’s future in his closing remarks on the first night of the Republican National Convention.

How the Pfizer-BioNTech Vaccine Works
ByJonathan CorumandCarl ZimmerUpdatedMay 7, 2021
The German companyBioNTechpartnered with Pfizer to develop and test acoronavirus vaccineknown asBNT162b2, the generic nametozinameranor the brand nameComirnaty. A clinical trial demonstrated that the vaccine has anefficacy rateofover 90 percentin preventing Covid-19.
Producing abatch of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccinecurrently takes 60 days.
A Piece of the Coronavirus
The SARS-CoV-2 virus isstudded with proteinsthat it uses to enter human cells. These so-called spike proteins make a tempting target for potentialvaccinesandtreatments.

CORONAVIRUS
Like theModerna vaccine, the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine is based on the virus’sgenetic instructionsfor building the spike protein.
mRNA Inside an Oily Shell
The vaccine uses messenger RNA, genetic material that our cells read to make proteins. The molecule — called mRNA for short — is fragile and would be chopped to pieces by our natural enzymes if it were injected directly into the body. To protect their vaccine, Pfizer and BioNTech wrap the mRNA in oily bubbles made of lipid nanoparticles.

Because of their fragility, the mRNA molecules will quickly fall apart at room temperature. Pfizer is building special containers with dry ice, thermal sensors and GPS trackers to ensure the vaccines can be transported at –94°F (–70°C) to stay viable.
Entering a Cell
After injection, the vaccine particles bump into cells and fuse to them, releasing mRNA. The cell’s molecules read its sequence and build spike proteins. The mRNA from the vaccine is eventually destroyed by the cell, leaving no permanent trace.

Some of the spike proteins form spikes that migrate to the surface of the cell and stick out their tips. The vaccinated cells also break up some of the proteins into fragments, which they present on their surface. These protruding spikes and spike protein fragments can then be recognized by the immune system.
Spotting the Intruder
When a vaccinated cell dies, the debris will contain many spike proteins and protein fragments, which can then be taken up by a type of immune cell called an antigen-presenting cell.

The cell presents fragments of the spike protein on its surface. When other cells called helper T cells detect these fragments, the helper T cells can raise the alarm and help marshal other immune cells to fight the infection.
Making Antibodies
Other immune cells, called B cells, may bump into the coronavirus spikes on the surface of vaccinated cells, or free-floating spike protein fragments. A few of the B cells may be able to lock onto the spike proteins. If these B cells are then activated by helper T cells, they will start to proliferate and pour out antibodies that target the spike protein.

Remembering the Virus
The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine requires two injections, given 21 days apart, to prime the immune system well enough to fight off the coronavirus. But because the vaccine is so new, researchers don’t know how long its protection might last.

It’s possible that in the months after vaccination, the number of antibodies and killer T cells will drop. But the immune system also contains special cells called memory B cells and memory T cells that might retain information about the coronavirus for years or even decades.

This is a pretty interesting letter from Graham considering he has been insisting for weeks now (to the ire of conservatives) that he would not investigate the Bidens because he didn’t have the purview as the chairman of Judiciary. He argued the Senate Foreign Relations Committee should take it up.

That’s right, Catie. And here he is.
Charlie Savage
Washington Correspondent
Schiff attacks Republicans, saying they are different than the 1974 generation that would not defend Nixon at the end. Trump’s conduct was worse than Watergate, he said, because withholding aid to an ally at war is worse than a third-rate burglary of the Democratic headquarters. The difference between then and now, he said, is not that Nixon was worse, but that the Congress has changed.

A Couple Look for Their First Purchase in the ‘Heart of Brooklyn.’ But Where Is That?
ByJOYCE COHENAUG. 20, 2020
With about $1 million to spend, the former renters were hoping to upsize to a two-bedroom with two bathrooms, good closet space and a view that wasn’t a brick wall.Related Article
Last winter, Kerry Anne Hoffman and Sung Choi started apartment-hunting in earnest. Every Saturday night, they mapped out a Citi Bike route for open houses the next day.
“We had to plan our trips carefully to make sure we had a window for each open house,” Mr. Choi said. Sometimes an open house lasted only an hour. Sometimes the agent was late.
The couple, now engaged, met eight years ago, while working for the same tech company. Ms. Hoffman was living in Manhattan, in an East Village apartment between two alleys. “I could sleep all day because there was no sunlight,” she said.
Mr. Choi lived in Brooklyn, so close to the bridge in Dumbo that he called the neighborhood Rambo, for Right Around the Manhattan Bridge Overpass.
Three years ago, the couple rented an 850-square-foot two-bedroom in a modern but noisy new building in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, with rent in the low $4,000s. One next-door neighbor would fall asleep with the TV on. Another, a vocalist, practiced scales.

The couple, who now work at different tech companies — Ms. Hoffman, 34, in project management, and Mr. Choi, 43, in software engineering — wanted to upsize to a bigger two-bedroom with two bathrooms, good closet space and a view that wasn’t a brick wall.
One bedroom would be used as an office, and they wanted enough space for a dining table, so they could avoid holding dinner parties around their kitchen counter.
They had a budget in the low $1 million range, topping out at $1.4 million, and their goal was to find a relatively new condominium in “the heart of Brooklyn,” said their agent, Alejandro Beitler, of Compass.
“That was challenging,” Mr. Beitler said, “because there are different hearts of Brooklyn. Does that mean location, or are they talking about the vibe?”
They also wanted a place with the amenities they already enjoyed: a gym and common space in the building, and a washer-dryer and dishwasher in the apartment. Mr. Choi, who cooks, wanted a refrigerator with an icemaker and a water dispenser.
Many new buildings they saw had abundant amenities, but the apartments didn’t have adequate space for living or storage. “We would constantly play the game of ‘where will we move this item to make space for something else,’” Ms. Hoffman said.
“We didn’t want to make a rushed decision,” she said. “But we were able to end most days saying, ‘If someone kicks us out of our apartment today, we could live in something we saw.’”
Among their options:
No. 1
Downtown Brooklyn Tower
This two-bedroom in the Oro, a 40-story doorman building that opened in 2005, was about 1,200 square feet, with an open kitchen, a dining alcove and Manhattan views. The building had a lounge, a gym and a pool. The asking price was $1.395 million, with monthly charges of a little more than $1,000.
No. 2
Crown Heights Boutique Building
This two-bedroom occupied a full floor in a new three-unit building. It was 1,100 square feet, with huge windows and an outdoor space accessible through a bedroom. The price was $1.32 million, with monthly charges of $600.
No. 3
Clinton Hill Two-Bedroom
This two-bedroom was around 1,150 square feet, with a split layout similar to that of the couple’s rental and two walk-in closets. The building, around 10 years old, had a part-time doorman, a gym and a roof deck. The price was $1.295 million, with monthly charges of around $1,000.

Lil Nas X Is the King of the Crossover

“Old Town Road” just keeps on giving.
Lil Nas X Is the King of the Crossover
“Old Town Road” just keeps on giving. ByWesley Morris
Is there any getting over this song? Isn’t there some new town road we should be strolling down? The charts say we’ve moved on to “The Box” and “Roxanne” and “Hot Girl Bummer.” I heard a different story at a Christone (Kingfish) Ingram concert last month. Ingram is a strong rockin’ blues musician — a traditionalist, basically, who can set fires with his guitar — and I expected him to stick to the traditional script. But Ingram is also 21, just a few months older than Lil Nas X. What does he care about scripts?
He just started connecting a little bit of then to little bits of now. The connection made that night in his ferocious, flabbergasting instrumental dismount was between Prince and “Old Town Road.” He didn’t give it the novelty treatment, two bars then onto the next; he stayed there and made love to that song as if it had been around for half a century, as if he were conceived to it. Suddenly, it was “Hotel California,” “Stairway to Heaven.” Meaty, serious, canonical.
“Old Town Road”is the longest-running chart-topper ever. It spent 19 weeks up there. A whole summer! And since then, it has traveled from a TikTokking trap-country ditty (“Ridin’ on a tractor/Lean all in my bladder”) to an inescapable agent of multiculti cohesion. You’ll recall that, despite the plink of banjo (from a Nine Inch Nails sample, by the way), country radio didn’t want to play it and Billboard banned it from its country singles chart. The spurning spawned a remix with Billy Ray Cyrus. The new song’s popularity transcended the airplay scandal that compelled it. Nobody hears rejection now. “Old Town Road” has come to symbolize rebellion against parochialism and consensus in fraying times. It’s a major whodathunkit of social media virality, a classic “started from the bottom now my whole team here” phenomenon. And every time I see a team sway and twang with it, I get a little misty.
So obviously I was a mess at this year’s Grammys,when Lil Nas X performed with a Lazy Susan-load of other musicians.To make room for them, the song had to do some growing. The original version was 1 minute 53 seconds; Cyrus adds only 44 seconds more. After 10,000 listens, I swore it didn’t have any more give in it. But the minute the number opened — Lil Nas reclined on a living-room sofa, wearing one of his trademark shimmering country-western getups, strumming a mandolin — my face lit up. It’s still giving.

He got up and performed the first verse, and then walked through the door of the rotating, dioramic set — part Michel Gondry music video; part high school musical — and: It was BTS! Off they went: this black American whiz kid and these seven South Korean superstars TikTokked together. Except their verse was new, and their chorus was now “Seoul Town Road.” Then Lil Nas went through another door where he did Young Thug’s verse from a third remix. Then he opened one more door, and there was the producer and DJ Diplo, who made the song’s second remix, banjoing with the 13-year-old country-singing yodeler Mason Ramsey. Then, out strutted Cyrus. And the room went nuts.
All along, Lil Nas X had been insisting upon the song’s elasticity, that it can be anything and go anywhere. Here we are, still stretching this thing to infinity.

Higher test positivity rates are a sign that many infections are not reported — even if they are tested for at home. This results in a more severe undercount of cases. The number of hospitalized patients with Covid is a more reliable measure because testing is more consistent in hospitals.Read more about the data.

About the data
In data for Arkansas, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state. The state typically releases new data each day. From June 26 to July 23, 2021, it released new data on weekdays only. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.
The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test.Probable cases and deathscount individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses anadjustment methodto vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities.

About the data
In data for Arkansas, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state. The state typically releases new data each day. From June 26 to July 23, 2021, it released new data on weekdays only. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.
The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test.Probable cases and deathscount individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses anadjustment methodto vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities. |

A Racist Attack Was Caught on Camera. Nearly 45 Years Later, It Still Stings.
As protests and anger over racism grip the nation, a clip from a 1976 documentary about a hateful attack on a group of black children in New York City still resonates. We spoke to the children about their experience that day.
[shouting] “We would call them bike hikes. We were just going out to go explore your world.” “It would be at least six, seven, eight of us. Our parents said as long as you were home before the streetlights came on, you stayed as a group, you’re fine.” “It was a beautiful day, sunshine. The children in the neighborhood planned to go on a trip to McDonald’s just to have some fun, something different to do.” “Rosedale we thought was a safe place. We all went down. We were riding our bikes.” “And then we saw down the block that there was this beautiful American flag flowing in the wind.” “We saw a group outside on the block. So we was like, ‘Oh, this is a block party.’” “The last thing that I remember was someone saying, ‘Oh, a parade.’ And so we went down to go see the parade, and I laugh about it to this day because it was a parade to get the black people out of Rosedale.” Crowd: “White power — white resistance.” It’s the summer of 1975. White residents in Rosedale, Queens, are protesting black families moving into the neighborhood. [shouting] Crowd: “Equal rights for whites.” These are scenes from a documentary produced by journalist Bill Moyers. “Does he have a right to live here?” “No.” “Why not?” “Because he’s black.” “This was not the South. This was not Greenville, Miss., or Spartanburg, S.C., or Atlanta, Ga. This was right in the heart of the greatest metropolitan area in the country.” The documentary was found nearly 45 years later by a graduate student who posted a short clip on the internet. It went viral on Twitter and Facebook. And the question people kept asking, where are the kids now? “Hey, Rob, this is Whitney Hurst calling from The New York Times. My name is Whitney Hurst. I’m a journalist —” To answer that question, we called more than 90 people who had lived in Rosedale at that time. “I’m just trying to find anyone that might have known someone.” We couldn’t find any white residents who said they’d been there. “Came out because it got a little bit crazy.” But we spoke with several of the black children. We wanted to hear what happened to them that day to understand why their experience is resonating decades later. “We went down to see what was going on. Probably in the middle of the block, that’s when we figured out it was something else, and it was something that we definitely were not invited to.” “We noticed that they were running towards us. I was like, ‘Wow.’ You know, like, ‘Why are they rushing towards us,’ not thinking anything negative. And then we heard nigger.” [crowd shouting racial slurs] “Yeah, nigger!” “And they surrounded my best friend at the time, Lorena — one of the young men hit her, and they started calling us names. They started throwing rocks.” “Hearing the word, hearing it directed at me — ‘Why are you calling me that? That’s not me.’ You know, I’ve always been told that’s not me. I didn’t understand. I was like, ‘Who do you think you are to say we can’t come here?’ Like, how dare you?” “What happened to you?” “This little boy, he threw the rock. He tried to hit my sister, but he almost hit me. It was about that much away from me. And I sure wish he had hit me with that rock. I would pick up the rock right next to me and hit him right dead in his face.” “I was just kind of amazed to see that people can act like that, to tell you the truth. But that was like really the first when I was like, ‘Wow, people do not like black people.’” “They always do that. They always spit on us like we some dogs. They always —” “Spit back on them.” “Ain’t nothing going to change.” “I immediately was reminded of those programs my parents would have me watch with the dogs and the hoses, and people trying to vote and being killed and lynched. It just, it went right back to my history in this country. It just linked me immediately with that whole experience because I felt it.” “Do you forgive them?” “No. No. No. Can’t take back no hurt.” “And I didn’t know what to do with those feelings. I did not know what to do with those feelings.” For Moyers, the video going viral shows how powerful images can be. “He just tried to hit my sister, but —” “Because we were in their neighborhood.” “I mean, I do believe that television has been a great teacher. This country didn’t really respond to what was going on in the South, although it was well known, until the sheriff in Birmingham turned the water hoses and the dogs on those young people who were demonstrating there. We knew about it. We heard about it. We were aware of it, but we didn’t see it. We couldn’t escape it once we saw it.” “As we filmed in Rosedale, a group of blacks from South Jamaica was coming through the neighborhood in a demonstration of support.” “Every time a group of blacks get together, they want to help Rosedale with their problems. We don’t need any outsiders helping us with our problems, and we’ll stay white, period.” Crowd: “Right on. Right on.” “All right, so guys, this next scene is very disturbing, all right? It’s the one I was telling you about yesterday. I started a sociology elective in 2004-2005 school year, and my supervisor at the time said, ‘Come up with something that’s close to home that maybe you can relate to today.’ I grew up in Rosedale.” “… and think that I have a right —” “And I said, ‘I want to do a unit on race in America.’ And that Rosedale video, we’ve been showing it for 15 years now, giving it to the kids and say, ‘What do you think?’” “I’ve never seen racism on camera. That was full-on racism and just bullying.” Crowd: “Equal rights for whites. Equal rights for whites.” “I’m glad that I saw it because it needs to be seen. I feel like everyone should see this.” “I think it’s come back up because of the fact that we’re going back kind of.” “Racism is still alive. It’s still poisoning other minds.” “This is how it was back then. Let’s not repeat it again.” “Emotionally, I think it’s connecting with kids more today. This generation is that ‘I Generation.’ They can see it in a 10-second span, make a connection to it.” “Can’t take back no hurt.” “The kids are never going to forget that. They can’t unsee it, and it’s going to be with them forever.” “Rosedale, it’s turned predominately black now, so we’re welcomed there now. That day, the American flag was the image, the symbol that pulled us into that situation. We live in America. The American flag means good things. It means that we can go where we want to go. We can ride our bike down any street in America. But it really represented a symbol of do not enter. So they took that beautiful image and turned it into something ugly for me, and I want the flag back.”

About the data
In data for Colorado, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state, as well as health districts or county governments that often report ahead of the state. The state does not update its data on weekends. Prior to July 2021, it released new data daily. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.
The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test.Probable cases and deathscount individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses anadjustment methodto vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities.

How Giant Ships Are Built

How Giant Ships Are Built
Photographs by Christopher Payne
Reporting and text by Niraj Chokshi
June 17, 2020
Almost everything at this American shipyard exists at enormous scale. Vessels are constructed over years. Experience is developed over decades. The work is so spread out across the yard and over time that, to the untrained eye, it can be difficult to tell what is being hammered, wired or welded — and whether it’s right-side up or upside down.
When finished, more than a hundred pieces are fused into a hulking mass of metal that will be set afloat to connect an ever-shrinking world.
Large container ships play an almost incalculable role in the modern economy, responsible for delivering the vast majority of the products we buy. They make up a circulatory system that carriesmore than 90 percentof all traded goods.
Shipyards, like this one in San Diego run by General Dynamics NASSCO, keep those vessels moving.
Typically, the manufacturing process begins at the western end of the yard, where thin steel plates lie in stacks. The plates, longer and wider than a city bus, are welded and cut into panels. The panels, in turn, are twisted and shaped into the skeleton of the ship.
This ship under construction is the Matsonia. Four years ago, Matson, a transportation logistics company, signed a half-billion-dollar contract with NASSCO to build it and an identical one.
There are over 50,000 cargo ships operating around the world.
But not all container ships are the same. These two were designed to carry both cargo containers hoisted aboard and cars and trucks driven into the ship’s garage. Matson designated them “Kanaloa class” vessels, a reference to an ocean god in Hawaiian mythology and a wink to their eventual purpose: ferrying items to and from the island state.
There are over 50,000 cargo ships operating around the world.
As container ships go, the Matsonia is modest in size. But size is relative in shipping. Once it is seaworthy, likely by the end of the year, the Matsonia will stretch the length of more than two football fields and be capable of carrying thousands of 20-foot-long containers and 500 cars and trucks — as much as 57,400 tons of cargo in total.
In the United States, large shipyards have beenon the decline for decades, losing out on orders for massive commercial ships to cheaper foreign competition. Today, more than 90 percent of global shipbuilding takes place in just three countries: China, South Korea and Japan.
The Port of New York and New Jersey takes in more imported goods than any other in the United States. The Port of Houston exports the most.
What industry does remain in the United States is supported by the federal government, which orders American-made ships of all kinds, from Coast Guard cutters to naval aircraft carriers. The industry is also protected by a century-old law, the Jones Act, which requires that people and goods moving between American ports be carried on ships owned and operated by U.S. citizens and built domestically.
The Port of New York and New Jersey takes in more imported goods than any other in the United States. The Port of Houston exports the most.
The federal involvement has helped to preserve the vitality of the 124 remaining active American shipyards, which,according to government estimates, contribute more than $37 billion in annual economic output and support about 400,000 jobs.
That’s because despite the scale of the yards and immensity of the ships, much of the work happens at human scale.
NASSCO, which has been operating a few miles from downtown San Diego for nearly 60 years and became a division of General Dynamics in 1998, produces both commercial and military ships. There are often multiple being built or worked on at any given time, including this Navy assault vessel below, which was undergoing maintenance late last year.
The work here never stops, even during a pandemic.
The United States imported $167.4 billion worth of goods in April, even as the coronavirus shut down much of the world economy.
The United States imported $167.4 billion worth of goods in April, even as the coronavirus shut down much of the world economy.
Considered an essential business, especially because of its government contracts, NASSCO didn’t halt its operations as the spread of the coronavirus forced workplaces to close and communities to carry out shelter-in-place measures.
Instead, the company found ways to follow new safety protocols and social distancing. Worksites were cleaned more frequently, and hand-washing stations popped up across the yard. Some processes were altered to allow for fewer close interactions among the workers.
And even as the virus shut down much of the world economy, people continued to buy things, which meant that global shipping never completely stopped — nor did the job of making the ships.
A typical commercial ship takes NASSCO about three years to complete, including roughly 12 to 16 months of detailed design and planning. Construction of the Matsonia began in 2018.
The first few stages of construction focus on building out the structure of the vessel, in pieces. The panels are created and shaped into so-called blocks, chunks of the ship’s body that can weigh dozens of tons.
About 11 billion tons of goods are transported by sea each year.
About 11 billion tons of goods are transported by sea each year.
The blocks are then blasted and painted before entering the final stages of outfitting, where they are filled in with equipment, cables and piping. Sometimes, the blocks are turned upside down because the work is easier to perform facing the ground.
The pieces are then assembled into bigger “grand blocks” and, ultimately, into the ship like the Matsonia.
When complete, the Matsonia will begin making the more than 2,000-mile trek between the continental United States and Hawaii.
The United Nations expects maritime trade to grow 3.5 percent annually over the next five years.
Hawaii relies disproportionately on trade. An estimated 88 percent of all food in the state is brought in. Each year, nearly 13 million tons of cargo arrive by sea, according to Eugene Tian, the state’s chief economist.
That equals about 220 trips by a packed Matsonia.
The United Nations expects maritime trade to grow 3.5 percent annually over the next five years.
“Ocean transportation is a vital component of our economy,” Dr. Tian said. “Without it, I don’t think our people would survive and our visitors wouldn’t be coming here.”
At the NASSCO yard, the pieces of the ship are moved from one staging area to the next by giant cranes affixed to a network of rails or on wheels. (The two largest cranes, named Logan Lion and Big Dipper by a pair of elementary school students in a contest, can lift a combined 600 tons.)
The shipyard is open day and night, year round. Workers on the first and second shifts of the day carry out most of the construction, operation and quality assurance. Those on the overnight shift generally perform maintenance on equipment across the yard or move the blocks from one staging area to the next for the coming day’s work.
Once a vessel is mostly complete, it is launched into the water, where finishing touches are applied, like the installation of any remaining equipment, and all of the vessel’s systems are tested. The ship can then begin its life as an engine of global trade.
If all goes according to plan, the Matsonia will slide into the water in the coming months to begin ferrying goods to Hawaii before the year is over.

Australia Demands Apology After Chinese Official’s ‘Repugnant’ Tweet
Prime Minister Scott Morrison of Australia condemned a Chinese official’s tweet that showed an Australian soldier with a knife to the throat of an Afghan child, labeling it a “disgusting slur” and demanded an apology.
The repugnant post made today of an image, a falsified image, of an Australian soldier threatening a young child with a knife. A post made on an official Chinese government Twitter account posted by the deputy director general of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Lijian Zhao, is truly repugnant. It is deeply offensive to every Australian, every Australian who has served in that uniform. The Chinese government should be totally ashamed of this post. It diminishes them in the world’s eyes. I want to make a couple of points about this. Australia is seeking an apology from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, from the Chinese government for this outrageous post. We are also seeking its removal immediately, and have also contacted Twitter to take it down immediately. There are undoubtedly tensions that exist between China and Australia. But this is not how you deal with them.

Florida Was Nice, but This Couple Was Ready to Come Home to New York

Seeking cooler weather and ‘the pulse of the city,’ Glenn Snider and Allen Sistrunk put their $500,000 budget to the test in Manhattan. Which of these options would you choose?Related Article
Glenn Snider and Allen Sistrunk always knew they would return to New York City.
In 2003, the couple sold their one-bedroom in the West Village and bought a house in Boca Raton, Fla., after Mr. Sistrunk took a job as director of Mounts Botanical Garden, in West Palm Beach. Mr. Snider, a freelance graphic designer, could work from anywhere.
They had met a few years earlier, not long after Mr. Snider bought his first apartment, a studio in Chelsea that he found through an ad in the Village Voice, for $76,000. Mr. Sistrunk, who was living in Atlanta at the time, joined him in the studio, and they eventually traded up to the West Village apartment. (The couple, who were married three years ago, also own a house in Columbus, Ga., Mr. Sistrunk’s hometown, where the cost of living, and of housing, is low.)
In 2016, Mr. Sistrunk, now 65, took early retirement, and the men began plotting their return to New York. “In Florida, the weather is so miserably hot,” said Mr. Snider, 50. “We were ready as soon as we sold the Boca house.”
[Did you recently buy or rent a home in the New York metro area? We want to hear from you. Email:[email protected]]
Late last summer, with the proceeds from that sale, they started their hunt for a home in Manhattan. “I look at real estate all the time anyway, ever since I was young, with my first place in the city,” Mr. Snider said. “Back in the old days, you’d look at the classifieds, and you would plan your open houses that way.”
Their budget was $400,000 to $500,000 for a studio or one-bedroom in a location with good access to public transportation. When it came to price, Mr. Sistrunk said, “I think higher; Glenn thinks lower.”
They have two terriers, so they focused on dog-friendly co-ops in two Manhattan areas that fit their budget. In Murray Hill and surrounding East Side neighborhoods, they knew they could get a studio. In the uptown neighborhoods of Inwood and Washington Heights, they could afford a one-bedroom, although they were hoping to stay below Central Park.
Sunlight was another priority. “When we were first looking for an apartment, I said, ‘I am not a bat,’” Mr. Sistrunk said. “The first thing I do in the morning is open the blinds, so it went without saying that wherever we saw ourselves, it would be well lit.”
They spent one long weekend searching. “Once you’re in a place, you have a feel for it,” Mr. Snider said. “It kind of feels right. On paper, you just can’t tell.”
Among their options:
No. 1
Kips Bay Studio
This large studio on a high floor of a 1964 building had a unique layout, with a separate kitchen, a walk-in closet and a nearly eight-foot-wide foyer opening to the main room. There was a glimpse of the Empire State Building out the window. The price was $425,000, with monthly maintenance in the $1,100s.
No. 2
Murray Hill Alcove Studio
This boxy alcove studio, with a separate kitchen, was in a 1963 building with a roof deck. Despite its ground-floor location between the entrance and exit ramps of the Queens-Midtown Tunnel, there was plenty of light. The price was $399,000, with maintenance in the high $800s, including utilities.
No. 3
Washington Heights One-Bedroom
This renovated one-bedroom in a three-building 1959 complex near Fort Tryon Park faced a sunny courtyard and had a foyer, big living-room windows and a separate kitchen. The price was $389,000, with maintenance in the mid $700s.

About the data
In data for Alabama, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state. The state does not update its data on weekends. Until March 2022, the state typically released new data daily. During June 2021, the state released new data on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.
The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test.Probable cases and deathscount individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses anadjustment methodto vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities.

About the data
In data for Texas, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state, as well as health districts or county governments that often report ahead of the state. Texas typically releases new data each day. Weekend counts may be lower because fewer sources report to the state. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.
The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test.Probable cases and deathscount individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses anadjustment methodto vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities. |

Trump Addresses Killing of Antifa Activist
During his campaign rally in Greenville, N.C., President Trump spoke about the killing of Michael Reinoehl, a protester in Portland, Ore., by a U.S. Marshals task force.
By law they have to invite us in. We want to go to Portland so bad. That one would take 15 minutes to set, 15 minutes. And the man that shot another innocent man, this was an innocent man shot, killed, instantly killed. I said, what happened? Well, we haven’t arrested him. Two days, three days went by. We sent in the U.S. marshals. Took 15 minutes, it was over; 15 minutes, it was over. We got him. They knew who he was, they didn’t want to arrest him. Fifteen minutes, that ended.

Swing State Voters Look to the Future
In the days after the election, Times reporters went to four swing state counties with some of the tightest vote margins to see how people were feeling. The answer? Still pretty divided.
“Across the country anxiety is growing ...” “One the most contentious elections in history ...” “... and pandemic that has transformed the way the nation votes...” “Here’s Pennsylvania, a must win for Trump, his lead. has been ...” “Votes are being counted in the states that will decide this election ...” “Let’s take a look at Arizona now ...” “Is trying to undermine this election ...” “We are at a tipping point ... Vice President Joe Biden will win Pennsylvania ...” “... shows no signs of conceding ...” [overlapping sound] “I would say the mood and energy of this election would be very chaotic.” “Unfortunately, no one’s listening and everyone is talking.” “I think the biggest part is just the relief. All the political ads are over. Everybody I know is just done with that.” “Around here, it’s suburbia, so you have that split vote, people feeling disenfranchised one way or the other.” “There’s a lot of inequality in this country, huge, you know. We judge each other by how we look. We hide behind our social media.” “Something that we’ve moved away from is having open discussion of ideas. And I think that Pinellas is such a swing area, it’s because we do have those type of discussions, hash some things out, you know.” “And they were teaching people to hate our country ...” “Will you shut up?” “... 47 years you’ve done nothing, they understand ...” “You’re the worst president America has ever had.” “I’m a patriot. So no matter who is in office, I’ll respect that. But as it’s going right now, oh my God, it’s like a bunch of chickens fighting each other.” “The last four years have left me wanting more.” “It was a lot of anxiety leading up to this point.” “I want people to have more trust in government, have more trust in the political leaders and the people we elect.” “Politics are pretty divided and things seem really dark. But, you know, as a person of color, things have always kind of been dark.” “I don’t think we focus enough on environment. We certainly don’t focus enough on, you know, the downtrodden. We just don’t do enough to help people.” “Donald Trump has a death grip over the grass roots of the Republican Party ...” ”... Democrat Party wants to turn us into a socialist nation ...” “Donald Trump is running a hustle the most gullible voters in history.” “The silent majority.” “... against the truth ...” “There’s a feeling as if middle America is just told to shut up and sit there and vote left.” “I did vote for Trump and I would again. There’s nothing that he doesn’t represent in who I am.” “We were not necessarily going to vote for Joe Biden until, you know, maybe May or June. And by then Covid was really pretty awful.” “I voted for Donald Trump despite the issues that I have with him. Just mainly for economic policy and for stances on international affairs.” “I mean, it’s difficult because neither party is really representative of a hyper-progressive stance that I would enjoy.” “I do not want to live in a socialist country. Not at all. That was my main focus. Secondly, right now, I think the economy is great. It’s making a huge comeback. And I think Trump was the man to do it and to keep it going.” “This country ... it’s frightening how many states voted for Trump. I thought we would, he would, Biden would win in a landslide. And it’s shocking. I’m shocked.” “This has been a tough election for me, honestly. I’ve always voted Republican. I did not vote Republican this time. I voted Democrat because I do not like Donald Trump.” “There are downsides to both. And because of that, I personally, I didn’t do enough research to vote. Family-wise, I do have family that supports Trump. But I just ... I couldn’t.” “Well, the one that stood out that he was for the little guy. Biden, because he’s down to earth.” “One side of a deeply divided country is celebrating this week.” “Biden-Harris campaign has the most radical platform ...” “And Donald Trump has shown us time and time again, how he feels about our community.” “... completely sick of identity politics, it’s garbage ...” “... a racist ...” “When I was a younger woman, you know, we talked about the elections all the time. But we don’t anymore.” “I think Democrats are a little more open-minded, you know, fair to see the other side, thinking critically, and it just seems like the voters on the other side, just like, ‘This is how it is.’” “I would love to talk to my friends on the other side, but it gets too...heated.” “And that’s, that’s really bad. It stops the conversation that we need to be having, but we don’t do it. We don’t.” “A reshaped Republican Party, now grappling with what its future holds.” “... the president is now enveloping himself is this fantasy that the election is still ongoing.” “He is ignoring a pandemic, which actually is ongoing.” “... has been talking about unity, what they’re pushing for ...” “... divided country ... pay off all of this pain.” “Heck yeah, a united country matters. I mean, this is America. I hope my liberal friends are right. I still love them all the same.” “I do not think we will be unified at all.” “Honestly, it will probably get a little bit worse before it gets any better.” “I don’t feel any kind of way against anyone who chooses Trump. They have their reasons for doing what they do, like I have my reasons for voting for who I voted for.” “And I will respect the president, no matter who it is. And that’s unlike Trump. He got no respect from anybody that was against him. And I think that’s wrong.” “I don’t think we’ll ever get there. We’ve always been divided.” “America is America. But I look at the good side and there’s a lot of good people here. A lot.” “Yes, it matters that we are a united country. If we don’t stand for something, we’ll fall for anything.”

Analysis of the January Democratic Debate
Here is how our reporters covered the Jan. 14 debate in real time. You can also catch up withour recap,takeawaysandfact checks.
The debate was sponsored by CNN and The Des Moines Register.
Alexander Burns
National Political Correspondent
Buttigieg and Warren both delivering very sharp and clear pleas for big, big change. What they’re both up against is the instinct among many Dems to say: let’s beat Trump and then think about doing that stuff.
Alexander Burns
National Political Correspondent
Sanders does a version of the same, saying now is not the time to think small.
Lisa Lerer
Host, On Politics Newsletter
Biden: “Character is on the ballot this time around.”
Lisa Lerer
Host, On Politics Newsletter
This is a race, he says, about basic decency and restoring “America’s soul.”

Aaaaand we’re done.

This is Warren’s team – the stat is so qualified we don’t know what it really means.
Astead Herndon
National Politics Reporter
But it’s them talking more about their process to build momentum.
Astead Herndon
National Politics Reporter
Here’s Sanders’s team:
Lara Jakes
Diplomatic Correspondent
The policy specifics seem so much more satisfying in these closers than broad platitudes that boil down to: I’ll work hard and be nice.
Lisa Lerer
Host, On Politics Newsletter
My instinct is that this debate doesn’t really reshuffle much. Though I suppose Biden benefits the most from not getting banged up.
Trip Gabriel
National Correspondent
Very little shifted, in my view. It was also a debate without a candidate of color, and we heard little to nothing about racial justice, voting rights, zero about immigration and not a lot about economic gaps.

Astead Herndon
National Politics Reporter
Apparently Warren and Sanders did not shake hands after the debate but exchanged a few words.
Astead Herndon

If that means anything.
Maggie Haberman
White House Correspondent
I have a hard time seeing what changes after this debate, but who knows.
Lisa Lerer
Host, On Politics Newsletter
Maybe it was a missed opportunity for Buttigieg?
Lisa Lerer
Host, On Politics Newsletter
Warren took a shot with the electability exchange. Buttigieg didn’t even really try to shift any of the dynamics.

About the data
In data for Arkansas, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state. The state typically releases new data each day. From June 26 to July 23, 2021, it released new data on weekdays only. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.
The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test.Probable cases and deathscount individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses anadjustment methodto vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities.

Colorado May Have Second Case of Coronavirus Variant
The newly discovered and more contagious variant of the coronavirus, which was first seen in Britain, may have been found in a second person in Colorado after the state and health officials reported its first known case on Tuesday.
“As many of you are aware, yesterday, the Colorado state lab confirmed the first variant of Covid-19 in the United States right here in Colorado. Now, to be clear, that doesn’t mean that Colorado is the first state that has people with the variant. In fact, it’s very likely it exists in many states, particularly the states that have more interaction with the United Kingdom in the New England and mid-Atlantic area. But I’m very proud that our state lab was the very first to detect that variant.” “Our investigation and contact tracing efforts are ongoing. But at this time, we are aware of one confirmed and another possible case with a B117 variant of the virus. Both of these cases are Colorado National Guard personnel who were deployed to support staffing at the Good Samaritan Society nursing home home in Simla, Colo. That’s in Elbert County. Their deployment at the facility began on Dec. 23. The nursing home has an ongoing outbreak of Covid-19. Cases of Covid-19 were first identified in the facility in mid-December following routine surveillance testing in that facility.”
Colorado May Have Second Case of Coronavirus Variant
The newly discovered and more contagious variant of the coronavirus, which was first seen in Britain, may have been found in a second person in Colorado after the state and health officials reported its first known case on Tuesday.

Why ‘Hair’ Has Endured
Every now and then, a piece of American performance is so memorable that it both redefines its medium and reframes the culture at large. Here, an appraisal of one such enduring and heavily referenced work — a youth-inflected 1967 musical that captured the popular (and political) consciousness — alongside a gathering of the stars who not only made it but were made by it, too.
ByBen Brantley
ITS REPUTATION REMAINS that of a dangerous young renegade, pumped to the point of explosion with anger, hormones and mind-altering substances. But in truth, “Hair,” which opened in 1967 at New York’s Public Theater, was always a sweetheart: open-armed, open-minded, as ready to comfort as to party. Among American musicals of the late 1960s, it was the cool kid you wanted to cuddle with, even if you were no longer a kid yourself.
True, as the fame of this self-labeled “tribal love-rock musical” spread after its successful transfer to Broadway in 1968, it trailed a heady perfume of notoriety. This, after all, was a work that featured pot smoking, draft-card burning, references to a Kama Sutra of sexual practices and a host of unkempt young things singing in the nude for its first-act finale. The Acapulco, Mexico, 1969 premiere was closed by government order after its first performance. The show’s London producers cannily waited until there was a change in censorship laws to open it in 1968 in the West End. And just last year, “Hair” was removed from theschedule ofNBC’s series of live televised musicals, suggesting it still wasn’t ready for prime time.

Yet the liberating breeze emanating from this portrait of an improvised family of acid-dropping dropouts in New York City would be felt throughout the world, with productions popping up like mushrooms in Europe, South America and Japan. And the largely middle-class audiences who might have been alarmed by the prospect of rebellious youth at the barricades discovered that it was,in the wordsof the New York Times critic Clive Barnes “so likable. … So new, so fresh, and so unassuming.”
In fact, the cast album of “Hair” was one that, as young teenagers, my friends and I were allowed to play — and dance to — in our living rooms and even on church retreats (as long as we skipped the track called “Sodomy”). Compared to the acid rock that was then flooding the airwaves,Galt MacDermot’s score — even allowing for expletive-laced lyrics by the show’s creators,Gerome Ragniand James Rado — sounded as melodic as Rodgers and Hammerstein. Its songs became Top-40 hits, covered by the likes of theCowsills(the title song) and the5th Dimension(a medley).
It had been a while since songs from Broadway shows featured on pop radio, and there was hope that “Hair” might inaugurate a new age of hipness for the American musical. That never quite happened. Its imitations (including a couple of flops involving its original creators) didn’t have the same impact, and a 1977 revival died after only 43 performances. Still, “Hair” suggested that what was regarded as an aging genre could be surprisingly accommodating to new styles and voices, even if it would be decades before a contemporary, teen-appeal musical achieved a similarly hopeful, global impact: first with “Rent,” in 1996, and later, most spectacularly, with “Hamilton,” in 2015.
IN A 1993 INTERVIEW, MacDermot said that “Hair” was not ultimately a “political show” but one “about kids having fun and making fun of things.” Though it had a loose string of a plot, about a young man afraid of being drafted for the Vietnam War, it was mostly a series of sketches in which the characters satirized their convention-bound elders and extolled the joys of sexual and pharmaceutical highs. Referring to a wildly popular 1938 revue that combined topical sketch humor with antic musical numbers, MacDermot called “Hair” the “‘Hellzapoppin’ of its generation.”
And like “Hellzapoppin,” “Hair” seemed destined to fade into that bright oblivion reserved for period novelties like Monkees albums and troll dolls. Yet when I went to see the directorDiane Paulus’s 2008 revival of the show in Central Park (which subsequently transferred to Broadway), I was surprised to discover how moved I was by it, and not just for nostalgic reasons. It was the tribal aspect of the “tribal love-rock” equation that got to me all those years later — its sense of vulnerable people banding together on the threshold of adulthood, trying to postpone their entry into the scary world that their elders had created. What little story the showdidhave, after all, pivoted on whether one of its characters would be drafted into a conflict that made the United States as rancorously divided as it has ever been in my lifetime — until now.
The divisions then often included estrangements of teenagers from their parents. So some young people wound up forming alternative clans in which you chose your own family. It’s a design for living that has been translated into both the murderous darkness of the 1960s-era Charles Manson cult and into the anodyne sitcom blitheness of the 1990s television series “Friends” or the messier 2010s-era “Girls.” The clan members of “Hair” got high together and slept together, yes, but they also nurtured, consoled and entertained one another. And for much of the show, it’s that reciprocally supportive camaraderie that makes the musical feel so alive.
What I’d forgotten, though — until I saw Paulus’s production — was the show’s awareness of its own ephemerality, its sense that tribes of youth are destined to last only as long as youth itself. “They’ll never get me,” says Berger, the de facto leader of the show’s nomadic gang. “I’m gonna stay high forever.”
But the final number in “Hair” isn’t one of its odes to defiant individualism — the title song, or “I Got Life,” or the twinkly “Good Morning Starshine.” It’s called “The Flesh Failures,” and though its subtitle is “Let the Sunshine In,” it leaves you with the feeling that darkness is fast descending — and that the tightly bound coterie at the center of “Hair” may well have scattered forever by daybreak.

While exit polls offer an initial indication of how groups voted on election night, they arenot perfect. The polls are not precise enough to distinguish between, say, 53 percent support or 50 percent support from a certain group. Like any survey, they are subject to sampling error, and they rely on estimates of how many people voted in each group.

Healthcare workers have few spaces of sanctuary, between risk at work and anxiety at home that our loved ones could catch the disease from us. | https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/06/10/us/coronavirus-healthcare-workers.html | Healthcare workers have few spaces of sanctuary, between risk at work and anxiety at home that our loved ones could catch the disease from us. | When Nowhere Feels Safe, Finding Sanctuary on the Drive Home
Photographs and Text by Alex PotterJune 10, 2020
The coronavirus pandemic has exposed many things: inequalities in health care, lack of preparedness, and the value of essential workers. It has also forced many health care workers to spend time in solitude and isolation, while never feeling entirely secure. Our homes, once a refuge, are now potential incubators that put our families at risk.
Having worked in multiple emergency departments, including in Iraq during an active conflict, I am used to nursing under stressful situations. Yet nursing during the coronavirus has brought a different type of stress - dread from an invisible enemy that, as yet, has no vaccine.
My colleagues and I have few spaces of sanctuary, between risk at work and anxiety at home that our loved ones could be exposed.
But there is one sanctuary, a place that is just ours: Our cars. In our cars, we can breathe, sigh, cry, listen to music, pray, or just decompress, if only during our drives home.
I photographed my colleagues, all emergency room nurses at Rhode Island Hospital, after our 12-hour shifts. While sitting inside their cars, I asked them how they are coping during this difficult time.
“I'm afraid to bring it home to my family. I often drive around downtown at 3:30 a.m. after a shift to just think and be. At night the city looks no different during Covid than it did pre-Covid. Empty streets, street lights. It's peaceful.”
Missy Arruda
“In the ER, we're used to having a crowded waiting room. Family members along with patients. All that came to a stop pretty fast. People became scared quickly and just stayed home. Possibly taking home what could potentially kill someone is a frightening burden to carry.”
Maggie Brant
“I feel like I have a different face for each angle of my life. One for caring for my patients, and another for caring for my family. Each present themselves with insecurities and the hope that I am getting it right.”
Melissa Aldrich
“The fact that I cannot hug my family after a long shift has got to be the worst part. Afraid that I may pass something to them, I refrain ... because I worry, and couldn’t possibly live with myself if I harmed them in any way.”
Veronica Medieros
“Being at work makes me feel normal. It’s when I’m not at work that I have a constant worry that what I do for a living could be putting my family at risk.”
Kellie Laneres
“I want to be around the few people who care about me, and I can't. I feel selfish for wanting to. I don't see them because I won't put them in danger.”
Derick Waters
“We didn’t really know what to expect. The rules and information changed everyday. I worry about what I could be bringing home to my family. We take precautions, but they’re not infallible. The fear is always there.”
Jessica Willis
“I haven’t seen my family in months, and worry that if I do go around them, I will get them sick. The only people I have spent time with outside of work are my co-workers, who are the only people who understand the stress that we deal with at work. That has become our new normal.”
Lauren Beardsley
“I have never in my life wanted to hug my mother, father, sister, and brother so bad. I'm praying for the day that we no longer have to live six feet apart.”

How to Pee in the Woods
How to Pee in the Woods
Planning to take a road trip or go camping this summer? Your usual pit stops aren’t the cleanest if you’re looking to lower your risk for acquiring Covid-19.
Here’s how to go in nature when nature calls →
How to Pee in the Woods
Pick your spot.For those with female genitalia, peeing is not as easy as finding the closest tree. First, check that you’re not flashing anyone. Then find a spot that is clear of things like poison ivy, wasps nests, fire ants, and sharp debris.
Kathleen Meyer, who has written a book on the topic of going in the woods, says to squat low to avoid splash back. You can also invest in a funnel, like the Go Girl or SheWee.
How to Pee in the Woods
Pack in, pack out.If you are using toilet paper, don’t leave it behind. Instead, put it in a plastic bag. Then wash your hands and the outside of the bag. Dispose in the nearest trash can.
For poop, use specialized waste bags, like the Restop 2 or or Trail Essential’s Toilet Bags. Add a sprinkle of poo powder, to solidify the waste, and eliminate the odor. And yes, carry it out with you.
How to Pee in the Woods
Dig a hole.You can also poop in a hole.
Make sure the hole is at least 200 feet away from bodies of water and dry washes (which may fill up during a storm) to avoid spreading parasites.
Do it far from trails and campsites.
Dig down between six and eight inches, then cover it back up.
How to Pee in the Woods
...or just go at home before you head out into the great outdoors. |

Maine Election Results: Second Congressional District
Maine is only one of two states where there is no winner-take-all of the Electoral College votes. As in Nebraska, the winner in each Maine district (there are two) receives oneElectoral Collegevote in a process called the congressional district method. So there is a scenario in which the presidential election could be decided by a vote in Maine. That might be in this increasingly competitive race, where the Republican challenger Dale Crafts hopes to unseat Jared Golden, the incumbent Democrat and a Marine Corps veteran.

A Couple With Manhattan Jobs Seek the Ideal Brooklyn Home. Which of These Would You Choose?
ByJOYCE COHENAPRIL 16, 2020
After years of renting, two young doctors hoped to buy something in their beloved Clinton Hill, but found better options elsewhere. Here’s where they landed.Related Article
Mike Baad spent his early years in New York moving from one “ridiculous Craigslist sublet” to another, usually because of crowded conditions and rising rents. “The places weren’t very good, but they were cheap,” he said.
As he was finishing medical school, he landed in a shared rental in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. That’s when he met Clara Orbe, who was living in graduate-student housing at Columbia University while earning her Ph.D. The couple were married about three years ago, at which point they rented a top-floor one-bedroom in a Clinton Hill co-op for $2,800 a month.
They loved the neighborhood enough to put up with lengthy commutes: his to a hospital on the Upper East Side, where he works as a pediatric radiologist; hers to an office in Morningside Heights, where she is a research scientist. “Clinton Hill is not near any subway, so it’s very local,” Dr. Baad said.
[Did you recently buy or rent a home in the New York metro area? We want to hear from you. Email:[email protected]]
The couple, now in their mid-30s, saved so they could buy a home. “We are planners,” Dr. Baad said. “We want to take it one step at a time.”
The next step was a two-bedroom co-op.
They knew they wanted to live in a prewar building. “I would have felt like it wasn’t genuine to my taste if it was all perfect and new but didn’t have the details that we like,” Dr. Orbe said.
Apart from that, “we didn’t have many asks,” Dr. Baad said. “The fact that laundry is even in the building was good enough for me. For a while, I was a little obsessed with outdoor space, but it wasn’t make-or-break. All these places were much nicer than anything we were accustomed to.”
At an open house last summer, they met Albi Zhubi, an agent at Corcoran. “They were looking for the opposite of what most things on the market were,” Ms. Zhubi said. “They wanted no new developments.”
Clinton Hill had little suitable inventory, so they turned to nearby Park Slope and Prospect Heights.
The couple planned to spend around $1 million. On the low end, they saw small, self-managed co-ops with what they called “pseudo bedrooms” — usually walled-off nooks in the living room.
“The competition for places under $1 million was kind of crazy,” Dr. Baad said. “Maybe it was the mansion tax, or people are priced out or it’s a psychological thing.”
They realized that increasing their budget a little would get them a lot more. “We figured that out quickly,” he said. “It’s $100,000 more, but it’s way nicer.”
Among their choices:
No. 1
Prospect Heights Two-Bedroom
This two-bedroom facing an interior courtyard was on a low floor in an elevator building, with three exposures and no views. It had a large dining room, exposed brick, French doors and antique doorknobs. The building had a laundry room.
The price was $1 million, with monthly maintenance of about $1,200.
No. 2
Prospect Heights Walk-up Duplex
This two-bedroom duplex was on the top two floors of a small walk-up building, with a spacious room upstairs and a 100-square-foot rooftop space. It had a wood-burning fireplace, a washer-dryer and a second bathroom.
The price was $1.195 million, with maintenance of a little less than $1,100.
No. 3
Park Slope Walk-up Two-Bedroom
This top-floor apartment in a brownstone came with central air-conditioning and private roof space reached by a spiral staircase. The unit was pristine, with exposed brick, beamed ceilings, a washer-dryer and a second bathroom.
The price was $1.099 million, with maintenance of a little less than $1,100.

Josh Harcus sellsrobots for a living. Robotic vacuum cleaners, to be specific — a model called the Whiz, which his employer, SoftBank Robotics America, released here last fall. The company, part of a group owned by the Japanese conglomerate, has deployed more than 6,000 of the robots around the world, including at Facebook headquarters. They look like something out of “Wall-E”: a rolling gray cylinder about thigh-high that trundles back and forth over carpets, sucking up dirt. Many of Harcus’s customers are major airports and hotel chains or the huge cleaning companies hired by them. SoftBank Robotics rents the units to clients, at an annual cost of $6,000 per machine. It’s an expensive lease, so all last fall and through the winter Harcus was traveling around, showing off the Whiz, pressing the flesh to convince customers of its value.
“Probably a good 80 percent of my time was on the road,” he says. He would pack up a robot, fly it into town, turn up at the hotel and then have it go to work in front of the staff. “It feels kind of like vacuum sales back in the day, like Hoover sales: You show up, throw dirt on the ground, scoop up the dirt — ‘How many do ya want?’” He had mastered a sales pitch filled with patter about industrial filth. (“Not to bore you with stats, but a foot of carpet can hold up to a pound of dirt,” he told me. “Honestly? Those are thenastiesthallways in the world.”)
When Covid-19 hit, Harcus’s company, like most firms across the country, sent its office staff home. Overnight, it essentially became a remote workplace. There was still a lot of demand for the robots, Harcus knew; he kept in touch online with cleaning firms, which told him that hotels were desperate to clean their premises even more intensely now, to convince guests that they could safely visit. But Harcus was stuck sitting on the gray couch in his small San Francisco apartment, trying to figure out a new challenge: How do you sell a robot to people who can’t touch it?
After discovering that executives were easy to reach — “They’re bored,” he says, “because they’re used to being in the field, cleaning” — Harcus began making five or six sales calls a day over Zoom, the videoconferencing app. Because he couldn’t show the Whiz to his prospective customers in person, his colleagues created a looping image of the robot zipping around a hotel, which he ran in Zoom’s “virtual background,” while his face and torso floated in front of it, as if he were a YouTube streamer talking over a video. Harcus, who is 31, with dark hair, dark-framed glasses and a wide smile he flashes readily, studied webcam technique to get his lighting right. (“We call it the ‘witness-protection-program look’ that you’re trying to avoid, where you look superdark,” he says.) And he came up with new patter. Talk about the weather was out, while commiserating over at-home child care was in: “I have a lot of screenshots running of babies crawling on people I’ve met.”
It worked; clients kept signing contracts. The day before we spoke in early May, Harcus said, he closed deals with six hotels. He shared with me a recording of a call with Michael Asnani, the operations manager at Ganir & Company, a firm that cleans hotel chains like Marriott and Sheraton. Asnani said he liked the idea of robots taking over the hallway vacuuming, because it would free his staff to do extra, trickier cleaning and linen-folding. Harcus pointed out that robots record data on the carpet area they’ve covered, helping prove to skittish hotels that surfaces had been scoured. “Nice, nice,” Asnani said. “That’s awesome.”
The success of Harcus’s remote sales surprised everyone at SoftBank Robotics. Kass Dawson, a marketing and communications executive there, had been worried that employees would slack off if they weren’t in the office. Instead, they all began working so nervously, even neurotically, that productivity rose, Dawson told me. The hours that employees previously spent commuting were now poured into sales or into training customers online.
Today Harcus can’t quite believe how time-intensive sales used to be. “We spent all this time, we flew robots out — we flew out,” he says. Yet usually the face-to-face demo was astonishingly brief. “Hours! Hours and days of prep! Just for a 10-minute discussion.” The customer would look at the robot, “and they were like:Wow, you’re right. It picks up dirt, and it keeps doing it. I don’t have any questions.” He laughs. “We traveled all for this. Like, that’s it?”
This has caused him and his colleagues to wonder what’s crazier: being forced to work from home, peering into a webcam all day? Or the way they used to work?
That question and others like it have been caroming around white-collar, office-work America for months now. In a Mayworking paper, Erik Brynjolfsson, a professor in management science at M.I.T., and a group of academics reported survey results indicating that half of those who were employed before the pandemic were now working remotely. That’s a significant increase — pre-Covid-19, the paper estimates, the figure was about 15 percent. (In 2018, a U.S. Census Bureau survey found that just 5.3 percent of Americans worked from home full time.) It’s a situation deeply skewed toward the privileged: Many employees who work in health care, public transportation or the service sector, for instance, have never been given the option to work remotely, during the crisis or before. At companies where remote work is possible, though, many now expect it to continue for quite some time. As Kass told me, the remote experience at SoftBank Robotics is “absolutely going to change the way we think about as a company who needs to be in the office and not.”
The coronavirus crisis is forcing white-collar America to reconsider nearly every aspect of office life. Some practices now seem to be wastes of time, happily discarded; others seem to be unexpectedly crucial, and impossible to replicate online. For workers wondering right now if they’re ever going back to the office, the most honest answer is this: Even if they do, the office might never be the same.
The consulting firmAccenture has more than 500,000 employees worldwide. Before the pandemic, no more than 10 percent of them worked remotely on any given day. By the middle of March, though, nearly all of them had been sent home. Their use of Microsoft Teams — software that enables co-workers to talk, videoconference, whiteboard and chat by text with one another — erupted. The volume of video calls went up sixfold; the audio calls tripled, to 900 million minutes. “Just to put that in context, that’s 1,700 years of continuous audio,” Paul Daugherty, the firm’s chief technology officer, told me from his home office, where a huge ship’s wheel could be seen hanging over his bookcase (“I’m a nerdy sailor,” he joked).
Employees adapted quickly, he says: “They were using ironing boards as a stand-up desk.” But what astonished him was that even though they had lost the easy rapport of face-to-face office contact, productivity didn’t sink. It went up, when measured by several metrics — developer productivity, for example. “If you, six months ago, had said, ‘We’re going to give you a few weeks’ notice, and then you’re going to have your whole work force working from home,’ I would have said: ‘You’re insane. There’s no way it’s possible.’”
It’s difficult, in a pandemic, to judge how sustainable this surge in remote work is. Home life in a lockdown is much harder than usual. Many workers who live alone are experiencing enforced isolation as an emotional grind. Among those with young children, many are finding it exhausting to juggle child care, home schooling and their jobs. A senior communications specialist at TD Ameritrade, Ruby Gu, told me that she and her husband, a quality-assurance engineer, were taking turns hunkered down in their basement while the other looked after their 21-month-old and 4-year-old in the living room above (“two small children running around over my head right now”). A marketing director and parent of two toddlers told me her new hours were “9 to 4,” by which she meant 9 p.m. to 4 a.m., the only quiet hours she could find to work.
It’s a messy moment, further blurring a line between home and office that has already been heavily eroded by phones and computers. Nearly every parent I spoke to had their fingers crossed that schools and day care would reopen in the fall — at which point remote work might become an option they could choose, as opposed to one they were forced to endure.
Assuming that such a day does arrive, it’s possible that quite a few may elect to continue working outside the office. Research conducted before the pandemic found that remote work offers significant positive effects for both employee and employer.
One is productivity. What Accenture discovered is not, it seems, a fluke: Output often rises when people work remotely. In 2012, the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office, headquartered in Northern Virginia, began a program allowing patent examiners to live anywhere. For those who chose to work remotely, productivity rose by 4.4 percent, according toa studylast fall by Prithwiraj Choudhury, a professor at Harvard Business School, and two colleagues. A 2015 casestudyby Nicholas Bloom, a professor of economics at Stanford University, and others found that when one Chinese travel agency assigned a random group of employees to work remotely for nine months, their productivity went up by 13 percent, generating an increase of roughly $2,000 in annual profits per employee. (It later rose even higher, to 20 percent.) The company’s chief executive had actually expected productivity to decrease; he figured the shift would yield savings that made up for the lost output.
“But it was win-win,” Bloom says. As far as could be determined, the boost in productivity derived from employees’ being able to work more efficiently, without interruptions from their colleagues. (One employee reported that working from home was a welcome respite from her former cubicle-mate, who had a habit of loudly clipping her toenails.) People also worked more hours: There was no commute to make them late for their shifts, and even their tea breaks were briefer.
Working at home can also improve how employees feel about their jobs. Historically, “research has shown a powerful correlation between telecommuting and job satisfaction,” says Timothy Golden, a professor of management at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute who has studied telework for two decades. People tend to prize the greater flexibility in setting their work hours, the additional time with family members, the reduced distractions. Even with the onslaught of online messages confronting teleworkers, “no one’s stopping by your cubicle standing over you saying, ‘Hey, I need this,’ or ‘I need your help right now,’” Golden told me recently.
Another attraction for employers: shrinking real estate costs. With fewer employees in-house, firms can shed space; for the U.S. Patent Office, “real estate savings were immense” — fully $38 million, according to Choudhury. What’s more, companies can hire talented employees who can’t afford or don’t want to relocate to exorbitantly expensive coastal cities. And in the pandemic, they may need to accommodate employees who — even after health authorities “reopen” their state — don’t want to come back. Many will hesitate at the idea of riding a crowded, unventilated elevator to an open office where people are crowded together.
Remote jobs can come with unsettling side effects for employees, though. Research finds that work hours encroach on leisure time. And surveillance is a potential hazard, as privacy advocates note: During the pandemic, there has been an uptick in companies using software to track what their employees are doing at their laptops — “which is a little bit scary,” says Enid Zhou, a lawyer with the nonprofit Electronic Privacy Information Center.
In the last month, several executives have announced sweeping plans to permanently increase the number of employees operating outside the office. At Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg has said he expects 50 percent of his work force to be doing their jobs remotely in as little as five years. Twitter’s leadership announced that anyone who wants to telecommute can now do so, forever. Nationwide Insurance sent nearly its entire staff home in mid-March and found the move so productive that it is closing six offices; 32 percent of its personnel will work remotely. That’s about four times more than before, Gale King, Nationwide’s executive vice president and chief administrative officer, told me. (She herself has become so adroit online that, she says, “I’m like a new millennial.”)
At Accenture, Daugherty says, many employees will certainly return to the office eventually — but according to a global survey of its customers, 49 percent of those who had never before worked from home said they “plan to do it more often,” even after the pandemic eases. He says companies are figuring out how to “virtualize” every part of work — every meeting, every employee check-in — so that it could potentially be done remotely. “It has accelerated three years of digital cultural adaptation to three months,” he says.
Stewart Butterfield,the chief executive of Slack, got a glimpse of how the pandemic had changed his firm two weeks into the crisis, when his company’s “all hands” meeting — traditionally a slick, elaborate production — was abruptly transformed.
Slack makes communication software, which many companies (including The Times) use to keep live conversations going among staff members. The company is headquartered in San Francisco, with offices in nine other countries. Butterfield throws monthly meetings that every employee is strongly encouraged to attend, held at the headquarters’ biggest meeting areas, where senior executives update employees on the state and direction of the firm.
“Normally,” Butterfield told me, “our all-hands are an hour long.” They’re grandly staged events, with the executives preparing drafts of slides, then getting feedback and tweaking them, and diligently rehearsing their presentations. “There’s multiple cameras and live editing, and it’s broadcast out to all the different offices.” He estimates that “probably hundreds of hours of preparation” go into the efforts.
You might expect there to be a lot of remote workers at a place like Slack — after all, the whole point of its product is to help people collaborate while scattered to the winds. But fully 95 percent of Slack’s 2,000-plus employees work in one of the company’s offices. After the pandemic hit, they were sent home, which is where they were when the latest all-hands meeting rolled around.
Butterfield gave up on the complex production values this time. Instead, employees merely watched a Zoom broadcast, and presentations were short and spartan.
“There were seven execs,” Butterfield recalls, “and everyone spoke between 30 and 90 seconds.” Each executive expressed gratitude to staff, then briefly explained his or her most important priorities — “and that was it.” The entire thing was over in 21 minutes. It had moments of Zoom levity: “There was one moment where Julie Liegl, our chief marketing officer, was giving her update, and she had one daughter suddenly jump into her lap and another daughter come behind her chair and start dancing, and she didn’t miss a beat, just kept going. And that got huge rave reviews from across the company, because she’s modeling the behavior — your kids are going to creep into the video, and that’s OK.”
Staff members rated this all-hands event higher than any previous one. Now Butterfield, too, is wondering: Did he ever really need such elaborate all-hands meetings? Did that corporate pageantry serve enough of a purpose to make the expenditure of time worthwhile?
“There’s all kinds of habits and practices that develop that aren’t effective,” Butterfield told me. “You think you can’t do something — and then you have to do it. And so it turns out you can.”
Meetings, of course, have long been a lightning rod in corporate life. Many are crucial for coordination; others seem pointless. But as executives know, it can be hard to tell the difference. Because communication is generally essential to every company’s mission, most meetings that are proposed take place, and then are scheduled again and again until they build up on employee calendars like plaque. Most evidence suggests that employees pine for fewer meetings. Recently Constance Noonan Hadley, a lecturer in management at Boston University, and a team of academics surveyed 182 senior managers; 71 percent found too many of their meetings “unproductive and inefficient”, and nearly two-thirds thought they came “at the expense of deep thinking.”
The sudden shift to online meetings has prompted executives and employees everywhere to rethink how many are truly necessary. In the early days of the pandemic, most of the workers I spoke to told me, they frantically began setting up video meetings to replicate every get-together they would normally hold face to face. But they quickly discovered video meetings didn’t flow nearly as well. The easy give-and-take of conversation had dissolved. Because the video signal is often delayed, people in an online meeting wind up accidentally talking over one another, so they overcorrect by talking less often, pausing for a long time before jumping in — or developing complex turn-taking systems, making the tempo of conversation sludgy and awkward.
“It’s almost like ‘Robert’s Rules of Order’ have come back in, like Parliament,” K.C. Estenson says. Estenson, the chief executive of GoNoodle, a seven-year-old company in Nashville that produces “movement and mindfulness” videos for elementary-school children, sent home his staff of several dozen on March 15. Only the week before, the firm had completed a million-dollar renovation on its downtown office.
“I mean, literally, the last day I was in the office, the guys were inside, fine-tuning the tile in the kitchen.” He laughs darkly. “Now, frankly, it seems like the worst business decision I ever made.” Estenson and his staff had gone through the honeymoon period with Google Meet and Zoom — they dove in, held a lot of crowded sessions, then hit the wall and pulled back a bit. Meetings became smaller and less frequent. Estenson was running himself ragged doing dozens of “one on one” check-ins.
“It forces people to be more thoughtful about who is in meetings,” Chaye Eichenberger, GoNoodle’s head of sales strategy and account management at the time, told me. I met her online at a couple of Zoom “happy hours” she held with numerous other employees, each of whom had dialed in from home, swirling glasses of wine and hoisting cocktails.
Like Estenson, they had, over weeks of experimentation, begun to recognize and adjust to the strengths and weaknesses of their various communications tools. Zoom meetings carried a whiff of formality, since they were preplanned — with a link to join sent around — so it felt like filing into a conference room: useful for talking business, but a bit stiff for batting around ideas between two people. So, for quick, one-to-one talks, they gravitated to a feature in Slack that enables video calls between two users. Someone who saw a colleague logged into Slack — signaled by a green dot beside the name — could instantly request a video chat. It was more like popping your head over a cubicle wall unannounced, to engage a colleague in an impromptu two-minute confab. Tracy Coats, the company’s director of partnerships, said she had become an ardent fan of this practice.
“I want to see my co-workers’ faces!” she yelled cheerfully, looming forward into her webcam, a mass of long hair and aviator glasses. “I want to see Kristie’s face, Shawna’s face, Julie’s face!”
“That green dot is pretty powerful,” Eichenberger said. “Because, you know, I’m an early-morning girl. So at 6 a.m., I’m like: Who’s up? Do I have anything I need to cover with them? Because I can do it now as opposed to later.”
Julie Crabill, the company’s new chief marketing officer, laughed. “I’m the same, but late at night,” she said. “I’m still online! I’m coming for you!”
They were, everyone agreed, just as productive as ever, maybe more so. They had reduced the frequency of their formal meetings, yet the communication felt nonstop — a flurry of Slack messages and emails too. This is, indeed, what nearly every scholar who has studied the history of remote work will tell you: “You have to communicate way more than you ever thought was necessary — it feels weird at first, but then it becomes more normal,” Barbara Larson, an executive professor of management at Northeastern University, told me. Even if they can cut down on meetings, remote colleagues still need to somehow replace the value of small talk, those seemingly casual interchanges that keep information flowing. Without that easy rapport, feelings of isolation quickly set in.
Indeed, isolation typically has been a chief complaint that arises in all research on remote work. Most of the GoNoodle executives attested to it. Remote work can thus present a paradox: You can feel removed from colleagues even while drowning in digital messages from them.
“My days have been a million times busier since all of this happened,” Eichenberger said. “So, going pee is like the highlight of my day. Like, Oh, my god, I actually have a two-minute break and I can pee.”
“Life has just sped up so fast,” Coats agreed. “All the partners that I talk to, they feel the same way. They’re like, Yeah, this is just feeling more like intense for some reason now. Mach 5, like, all the time.” Shawna Streeter, then the company’s vice president for finance, nodded. She added that she looked forward to the day when the lockdown was over and she could have a waiter place a meal in front of her and then take the dirty dishes away. “I feel like I’m cooking 250 meals a day.”
Beyond the feverishpace of online work, employees are experiencing some problems specific to video — what has popularly come to be called “Zoom fatigue.” In late March I spoke via Zoom to Jessica Lindl, a vice president at Unity, a company that makes software for creating and operating interactive 3-D environments. Before the pandemic, Unity’s 3,700-person staff conducted about 10,000 Zoom calls a month. They were now doing five times as many. She was impressed by how productive Unity’s employees had been — they launched a new, 25,000-student online training class in the middle of the pandemic.
But doing back-to-back Zoom calls was, they found, unexpectedly draining. “I just got off a call with my C.E.O., and he’s like, ‘Oh, my God, I’m Zoomed out,’” Lindl told me, sitting at a desk on the top floor of her house. She, too, would find that after a day of nonstop Zoom meetings, she was spent. “I come to Friday night, when all my friends wanted to do virtual happy hours, and I’m: ‘I can’t do it! I am exhausted.’”
Many people I spoke to described the same phenomenon, triggered by any form of video interaction. Scientists of human perception say this is rooted in how today’s video violates our normal use of eye-gaze, including how long we look at each other, and how often we do. When we’re hanging out together, we’re constantly exchanging glances — but only brief ones. Long stares, research shows, seem quite threatening. In one study by Isabelle Mareschal, who runs a visual-perception lab at Queen Mary University of London, and her colleagues, experimental subjects were asked to look at a video of a face that turned to stare directly at them. People found the gaze enjoyable, but only for about three seconds. After that, it became unsettling.
In this context, videoconferencing is characterized by remarkably poor design, because we’re expected to face the camera and stare. We could look away, but as most users intuit, that seems rude. After all, if we turn away from our laptops, a video-chat partner can’t tell what we’re looking at; maybe we’re ignoring them. So we stare and stare. The polite thing also winds up being the creepy thing.
“It really does come to the fact you feel that your attention has to be completely directed to the person on the screen,” Mareschal says.
Video chat also makes it harder to achieve “synchrony,” a sort of unconscious, balletic call-and-response that emerges when two people are in the same room. In this situation, we often mimic someone’s body posture without realizing it and scrutinize tiny bits of facial timing — noticing, say, when the other person is about to smile. “People start to synchronize their laughter and their facial expressions over time,” says Paula Niedenthal, a psychologist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and an expert in the science of emotion. “And that’s really useful, because it helps us predict what’s coming next.” Constantly making micropredictions of our partner’s state — and having these turn out to be correct — is, it turns out, crucial to feeling connected.
But these predictions are harder to validate when you can’t see a person’s body. They’re hampered further by those stuttering lags in video chat. So we start making “prediction errors,” subconsciously misunderstanding our partner’s signals, which in turn makes us feel awkward, alienated from the person at hand.
The more you ponder videoconferencing design, the sketchier it seems. For example, most apps by default show you an image of yourself. “So you’re trying to try to get out of the habit of staring at yourself,” says Andrew S. Franklin, a psychologist at Norfolk State University. Your eyes keep darting to that image of your own face, breaking whatever attention you were paying to your conversational partner’s signals. “What you would normally say in face-to-face interaction smoothly comes out jumbled,” Franklin says. Worse, when you’re in a “Brady Bunch” meeting with a dozen people arrayed in a grid, they’re all staring straight at you. No halfway normal meeting of humans behaves like that.
It’s possible that we’re still in an awkward adolescent phase with video calling, that protocols for how to behave correctly haven’t yet emerged. (In the telephone’s early days, some users debated whether saying “Hello” at the outset of a call sounded friendly or barbaric.) Already, people are inventing clever adaptations to make video calls less strained. One neighbor of mine, a psychiatrist, began seeing all his patients remotely. He devised a clever setup with one of them: They each face sideways, so neither is staring at the other. It captures some of the style of their previous, in-person sessions, when my friend sat in a chair and his patient reclined on a couch. But if they want to look directly at each other, they can. “It works surprisingly well,” my friend says.
Other strategies may emerge. One scientist, David Nguyen, says he has found evidence that standing back from your camera can reduce creepiness. Nguyen is currently director of Accenture Labs in Shenzen — part of the research wing of the consulting firm — and in his Ph.D. studies he investigated how well people bonded over video chat. In oneexperiment, he and a colleague had groups of subjects talk in pairs. Some spoke using video that focused on their partner’s face; others talked using a camera that showed their upper bodies; some spoke face to face. Nguyen then had the subjects fill out a questionnaire individually and brought them together afterward to stage a secret test of how well they had bonded. One would sit in a room, awaiting the other; upon arrival, the partner feigned a little accident, dropping some pens on the floor. Nguyen wanted to see if the other partner would help pick the pens up.
Twice as many people who’d seen their partners’ upper bodies in video chat helped to scoop up the pens, compared with those who had only seen their partner’s face. In essence, having a bigger view helped them achieve synchrony and bond with their opposite number. These days, when Nguyen video-chats, he sits a few feet away from his keyboard, so his upper body is visible. He also speaks more emotively. “Ramp up the words that you’re saying,” he notes, “and then exaggerate the way you say it.”
His research suggests another intriguing idea, which is that maybe the aspect ratio of videoconferencing needs to change. On a laptop, many corporate video tools display you in landscape mode, the way Hollywood movies are shot and the easiest orientation on their horizontal screens. But that framing cuts off the rest of your body. In contrast, the newer generation of video-focused social networks, like TikTok, were built for the mobile phone, which usually takes a vertical shot, neatly showcasing the entire body. The explosive growth of TikTok — and its riot of joyful, full-body dance moves — may owe something to our deeply baked perceptual psychology.
Doreen Bucher isthe vice president for global marketing at Symrise, where she works with major brands to create new scents for high-end perfumes — “what we in our industry parlance call ‘the juice,’” she told me dryly. Marketing an expensive new fragrance requires a lot of visual creativity. Advertising cannot convey the actual scent, of course, so it has to paint a picture of an idea, the fragrance’s essence. (“We always say that people kind of smell with their eyes.”)
In her routine, prepandemic office life, Bucher used to sit with her graphic designer, and they would pore over visual ideas on paper, pointing to different parts of the page as they batted concepts about. “We’d have this incredible dialogue,” since both could look at the same thing together. Doing it remotely has been painfully difficult. “I’m like: OK, go to Page 5. OK, now go back to Page 4. You see the box on Page 4? I want that box on Page 5,” she says. “It’s so crazy to try to figure that out.”
Many of Bucher’s best ideas were, she feels, rooted in off-the-cuff trendspotting conversations she’d have with her two millennial teammates who sat nearby. “I’m famous for just standing up and being like: ‘Have you guys thought about the color purple and what that even means? Like, why is that a trend?’” she says, laughing. She once demanded of her co-workers, “Do millennials love clowns?” Bucher interrupted her colleagues a lot, she admits. (“I miss you” she recently told one. “I’m not sure if you missme.”) But those seemingly trivial flights of fancy would occasionally spark genuinely useful new ideas for the business. When remote, they’re less frequent.
That’s because office work is more than just straightforward productivity — briskly ticking off to-do items. It also consists of the chemistry and workplace culture that comes from employees’ interacting all day, in ways that are unexpected and often inefficient, like the stray conversations that take place while people are procrastinating or bumping into one another on the way to lunch. During the pandemic, though, many employees worry that this culture is eroding.
Ben Waber, the president and co-founder of Humanyze, has spent his career tracking patterns among how employees communicate and how these correlate to companies’ health; Humanyze creates software that lets an organization map how communication flows internally. Waber suspects that in the long run, a company’s culture and creativity risk declining in a remote setup, because that alters the way an organization talks to itself. Specifically, the “weak ties” inside a company might fray.
“Strong ties” are people in your life you talk to frequently, even daily. “Weak ties” are the people with whom you rarely communicate, perhaps 15 minutes a week or less. When the pandemic hit, Waber analyzed the data from his clients’ companies and saw two things. One was that strong ties were becoming stronger. Ordinarily, 45 percent of the time someone spent communicating with colleagues — online or face to face — was with their five strongest ties. In the first weeks of lockdown, that figure exceeded 60 percent. That makes sense: “You’re stressed about work, and these are the people you know really well, so you’ll probably talk to them more,” Waber told me. That’s partly why productivity has stayed so high.
But the weak ties had deteriorated. Employees’ contact with more-distant colleagues had “fallen off a cliff,” dropping by 30 percent. Which again makes sense: If you only have so much time to communicate, you’re going to have to drop someone.
But Waber contends that it’s those weak ties that create new ideas. Corporations have historically seen some of the biggest new ideas emerge, he says, when two employees who usually didn’t talk suddenly, by chance, connected. That is less likely to happen when everyone is remote.
You might imagine that technology could connect people in those silos, enabling anyone talk to anyone. But in practice, it doesn’t. “There’s the idea that, like,Can’t you Slack with anybody in the company?Sure you can. But you don’t: You’re not just going to cold-message somebody. Whereas you would have occasionally bumped into those people if you were in an office,” like in the cafeteria, at an after-work event or while lining up for coffee in the morning.
Waber predicts that companies will continue to hit their marks and be productive while remaining partly — or heavily — remote. The real damage will sneak up a year or two later, as the quality of new ideas becomes less bold, less electrifying. He also suspects that the overall cohesion of employees, how well they know one another, might suffer. “I think we’re going to see just this general degradation of the health of organizations,” he says.
Research suggests that people find it harder to build cohesion and trust online. David Nguyen says his academic research found that “in a videoconferencing situation, trust is actually quite fragile.” Work by him and others in the field shows that people more readily form cooperative bonds when they are face to face, whereas in video “trust is diminished overall,” he says. “Trust grows a little slower than in face-to-face conditions.”
There are ways to establish trust in remote collaborators, though, by injecting a bit of face-to-face interaction into the virtual interaction. In a 1998experimentby Elena Rocco, then at the University of Michigan, participants were told to play a “prisoner’s dilemma”-like game, where they could either collaborate — and win more — or betray one another, winning at the expense of others. Groups that connected solely online (the experiment used email rather than video) did not collaborate very well. But when they were allowed to meet for brief periods face to face, their rates of cooperation rose dramatically.
This suggests, as Nguyen notes, a middle path in remote collaboration in which trust is critical: Corporations shouldn’t make it total. If employees are able to meet in person some of the time, it can help build the bonds that make remote collaboration richer.
This is precisely the tack taken by many companies that, long before the pandemic, operated fully remotely. GitLab Inc., for example, makes software that allows groups of people to share and work on computer code jointly. It has more than 1,200 employees worldwide but no office, so at least once a year it flies all employees to a weeklong gathering, where they conduct training sessions, hang out and absorb the company culture. Other organizations have created staggered office hours: Employees generally work remotely, but individual teams or groups of colleagues show up a day or two each week to work together.
This partway-remote approach may, in fact, be a sort of happy medium, a state in which companies get the benefits of productivity without losing their cohesion or creativity. When Timothy Golden, the scholar of remote work, waspart of a team that studied job satisfaction, it found that workers’ happiness grew in correlation with the number of hours they worked remotely — up to 15 hours a week, at which point, he told me, “it plateaued.” If that holds up, he says, then spending two days a week remotely could let a worker gain all the benefits before a “sense of isolation,” or perhaps “some increased difficulty communicating,” begins to eat into the gains.
The truth isthat as newfangled as remote work may seem, it relies on a set of tools that are by now quite old: video calls, discussion boards, chat, shared online documents. They’ve hardly changed in years. And that’s precisely the space where a new set of inventors see potential: to fix the drawbacks of remote work by revamping the tools through which we conduct it.
One afternoon this spring, I made a video call to Doug Safreno, an entrepreneur and co-founder of Pragli, who is trying to reinvent the online office so that it feels like a social network, except one based on audio. He showed me the screen of his new company’s app. He was using it while we spoke; on his screen were cartoon icons showing his work colleagues, spread out all over the Bay Area, in their homes. Clicking on any of their icons would ring them up; in another mode, a user can just click and start talking.
“It’s like a walkie-talkie,” Safreno said. “It’s kind of like shouting into their rooms. And then they can talk back to you.” Users can set their status to show whether they’re available for an unsolicited chat (“door open,” “door closed”). If Safreno starts speaking to a colleague, that person can either keep their conversation private or make it publicly visible, so anyone else in the office can click on their icons and join in. The goal, he added, was to emulate the free-floating banter in an office, where people overhear and jump into one another’s discussions.
Safreno pointed to the various icons of his workmates: Some status alerts showed they were listening to music; others were in do-not-disturb mode. “Vivek here is available,” he said. He pointed to another person, the company’s lead investor. “He’s online, but he’s in a meeting, so I don’t want to bug him. If one of them wanted to, they could jump in and start chatting with us.” Users can also make video calls on Pragli, or chat in text; but the audio, Safreno argues, is the most pleasant mode for casual back and forth. Indeed, many people who’d complained of “Zoom fatigue” to me had gravitated toward old-school phone calls to rest their eyes and, thus, their brains.
There may also be innovations that let us use video but avoid the fatigue of decoding one another’s faces. One example is Loom.ai, a new chat app that lets you use a regular videoconferencing app — Zoom, Microsoft Teams — except you appear as an avatar. Stylistically, the avatars have the approachable, cartoony style of Apple’s “memoji,” except here they have a torso and arms. Users can customize their onscreen cartoon to resemble themselves if they want.
Recently I took part in a video call with Loom.ai’s co-founders, Mahesh Ramasubramanian and Kiran Bhat. Ramasubramanian logged on as an avatar with a thick mop of dark hair swooping over his left brow, a rough approximation of his everyday appearance. Bhat’s avatar sported his dark horn-rimmed glasses and a red shirt under a sweater vest. While the two founders spoke, I could hear their real-life voices, as their onscreen avatars lip-synced closely with their speech. The sound of your voice, Bhat explained, controls the avatar; it matches the lip movement as closely as possible to your words. Hanging out with the avatars was a curious sensation — somewhat like when I interact with other players inside an online video game like Animal Crossing.
The goal of the app, Bhat explained, is to let users feel as if they’re visually present with other people, without needing to actually be on camera. Indeed, his webcam wasn’t even turned on. That also meant he could stand up or wander from his desk; so long as his laptop’s microphone still picked up his voice, I would see his avatar chatting away and gesticulating.
“I could be present at this meeting, but I don’t have to stare at the screen the whole time. It’s very liberating,” Bhat told me. This way, a group of people could meet, talk and look at their screenful of avatars — if they wanted to “see” the others — but not feel compelled to do so. And “that whole pressure of having to be dressed up or have the camera set up correctly, or the lighting needs to be set up or the background needs to be set up — all of that is gone.”
Ramasubramanian and Bhat came from the world of 3-D animation, having worked at DreamWorks Animation and Lucasfilm. But their work was inspired by having met Jeremy Bailenson, a professor of communication at Stanford who studies virtual reality and who has become an adviser to Loom.ai. Bailenson told me that chatting with cartoon-style avatars seems to be easier on our brains; it’s easier to build synchrony with them. Viewing an avatar’s cartoony features doesn’t require as much mental processing as watching live video of a human face.
Bailenson suspects that the real future of videoconferencing will be a blend of cartoons and our real, physical environment. We’ll use “augmented reality” glasses that paint holograms afloat in the world around us. He has already used prototypes of such glasses that let him speak to a remote participant, teleported into the room, appearing as a 3-D cartoony avatar — a sort of midway point between Loom.ai’s technique and actual reality.
“It was all just mind-blowingly good,” he says. Such glasses cost thousands of dollars now, and are relatively heavy to wear; Microsoft has a “HoloLens” that is $3,500 and grips your head like a visor. Bailenson figures it’ll be five or so years before the glasses are as light and affordable as regular eyeglasses you wear today. “It’ll solve a lot of these problems that we’re talking about today, because it’ll make a meeting feel so much like a real meeting. It’s because it’s going to feel like there’s somebody in your room.”
In contemplating aremote-work future, not everyone is ready to give up on the look and feel of real-world offices. Paul Daugherty, Accenture’s chief technology officer, says its internal research-and-development groups have been setting up experimental meeting rooms in virtual reality, using the Oculus headset created by Facebook. They’ve created replicas of some of their offices; recently he took visitors on a tour of the Accenture office in Sophia Antipolis, in France.
“I was there with a person from Geneva, a person from Paris,” he says. “It was strikingly good.”
The truth, as I heard from many of the newly remote workers I interviewed, is that as much as our offices can be inefficient, productivity-killing spreaders of infectious disease, a lot of people are desperate to get back to them. At the Zoom “happy hour” at GoNoodle, when the employees talked about their newly renovated office, they sounded wistful. They yearned for the tricked-out kitchen, the plants and big dark couches, ideal for lounging. “We had this killer sound system,” Tracy Coats said, with a sigh. She’s an extrovert, she said, who longs to hang out with her “peeps.” “You know — we’re drinking coffee, or maybe,Hey, want to take a walk?I miss that.”

Watch the Footprint of Coronavirus Spread Across Countries
ByNadja PopovichMarch 17, 2020
As the new coronavirus shuts down countries around the world, the impact can be seen from space.
A satellite that detects traces of human activity — tailpipe emissions from cars and trucks, fossil fuel burned in power plants and other industrial activities — shows striking reductions in pollution across China and Italy since the outbreak first started.
Both countries have taken unprecedented measures to limit the movement of people in the hope of slowing or even containing the spread of the disease. Even in South Korea, which has put more modest restrictions on the movement of its citizens, pollution appeared to fall.
“It’s the first time in history we’ve seen something like this,” said Marco Percoco, an associate professor of transportation economics at Bocconi University in Milan, referring to the speed and the size of the pollution declines in Italy and China.

Northern Italy
Italy is facing the largest coronavirus outbreak outside of China, with nearly 30,000 illnesses and 2,100 deathsreported so far.
Early cases were clustered in the north, where the outbreak has been especially severe, but the disease has continued to spread throughout the country.
In early March, the government imposed emergency measuresrestricting the movement of roughly 16 million people throughout northern Italy, including major cities like Venice and Milan. Bars, restaurants and other gathering places were closed, and citizens were asked to avoid all unnecessary movement. Soon after, similar restrictions were extended countrywide.
The impact of those restrictions can be seen in pollution readings gathered by the European Space Agency’s Sentinel-5P satellite. The images show that emissions of nitrogen dioxide, a gas closely linked to vehicle exhaust, are considerably lower across northern Italy compared to the same time period last year. The region regularlystruggles with wintertime smog.
The satellite data was analyzed for The New York Times by Descartes Labs, a geospatial analysis group.
In a separate analysis made public this weekend, researchers from Bocconi Universityreported a “sizeable” declinein several types of air pollution in Milan during the lockdown, including nitrogen dioxide levels and particulate matter pollution, a byproduct of burning fossil fuels that is highly damaging to human health.
“It is clear people are not moving by cars,” said Dr. Percoco, an author on the study, noting that vehicle emissions are a major source of particulate matter and other pollution in Italian cities. Few people are on the streets, he said, with many Italians staying home to avoid the virus.

The drop in pollution was even starker in China, where the new coronavirus was first detected. The largest emissions reductions were seen surrounding the city of Wuhan, in Hubei Province.
Chinese officialsput the region on lockdownin late January, following the Chinese New Year holiday, and have only recently begun relaxing restrictions to allow workers in key industries to return to their jobs. That includes public transportation workers and those involved in making medical supplies and other necessities.
The unprecedented lockdown, which barred the movement of nearly 35 million people, caused widespread economic disruptions, including a slowdown in manufacturingandelectricity generation.
Pollution across the region plunged accordingly.
“What we saw in China was a very rapid effect,” said Joanna Joiner, an atmospheric physicist at NASA. The agency’sown analysisfound that nitrogen dioxide emissions over eastern and central China were significantly lower during January and February this year compared to what is normal for the period.
Every year, pollution dips across the country during the weeklong Lunar New Year celebration, as factories shut down and people stay home from work. (The holiday falls in late January or early February each year). But usually, emissions rebound as the country reopens for business. This year, they stayed at lower levels for weeks.
A smaller decrease in nitrogen dioxide pollution can also be seen in South Korea, around the capital, Seoul. The South Korean government did not bar the movement of its citizens but encouraged strict social distancing by closing down schools and universities, asking people to work from home and canceling large gatherings.
The social distancing measures, as well as an increasing number of people in self-quarantine, appear to have had an impact on air pollution, said Minwoo Son, a coordinator at the Global Air Pollution Unit of Greenpeace East Asia. But further analysis is needed to fully understand the depth of coronavirus’ impact on South Korea’s air, he added.
As more countries shut down life as usual to slow the spread of coronavirus, we may see further drops in pollution around the world, Dr. Joiner said.
“We’re seeing changes in human behavior, in how people are moving around and how they’re using fuels,” she said. “Pollution won’t hide from the satellite data. It’s going to tell us what’s going on.”

100 Days Without SportsAs the coronavirus pandemic spread in March, it has brought disruptions, drama and, frankly, unparalleled weirdness to the sports world.
BY VICTOR MATHER AND TALYA MINSBERG
March 9:Before the coronavirus started sweeping through the United States, Rudy Gobert of the Utah Jazz decided to mock people’s fears by touching all of the reporters’ microphones after a postgame news conference. Two days later, he tested positive for the virus, the first N.B.A. player to do so.
March 11:The N.B.A. was the first major league to suspend its season. The moment when Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavericks, learned of the decision on his phone was captured on video, and his astonished reaction was mirrored around the country as sports began to fall like dominoes.

March 12:The men’s basketball tournament, the N.C.A.A.’s primary source of revenue, was canceled, driving home the seriousness of the virus. The cancellation of all spring college sports followed.
Ben Solomon for The New York Times
March 12:Major League Baseball, amid spring training, decided the prudent course would be to suspend play and postpone opening day. In a sign that few realized how much the virus would be affecting life for months to come, baseball officials initially delayed the season by only two weeks.

Is Your State Doing Enough Coronavirus Testing?
ByKeith CollinsUpdatedNovember 1, 2020
This page is no longer being updated. To see current testing levels in your area, follow the link to your state from the STATES menu above the headline.
The number of daily coronavirus tests being conducted in the United States is 52 percent of the level considered necessary to mitigate the spread of the virus, as many states struggle to increase testing.
An average of 1,193,000 tests per day were performed over the past week, according to data collected by theCovid Tracking Project, well below the current nationwide target of 2.3 million daily tests. The target, which is based on a methodology developed by researchers at the Harvard Global Health Institute, is different for each state and varies over time as infection rates change.
The figures for some states, marked with an asterisk (*) below, indicate one test reported for each individual tested, even if that person is tested more than once. The figures for the other states indicate the total number of specimens tested, including when an individual is tested more than once, which can lead to higher reported test numbers and lower positivity rates.
How each state’s current testing measures up
Average daily testing and hospitalizations in the last two weeks
Testing operations in the United States were delayed at the start of the outbreak after tests developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention were found to be faulty. Since then, testing levels have steadily increased across the country, but many states havestruggled to stay ahead of new outbreaksas overwhelmed labs report processing delays and shortages of crucial testing supplies. The resulting backlog can leave sick people undiagnosed, with the potential to further spread the virus as states reopen.
The Harvard researchers say that at minimum there should be enough daily capacity to test anyone who has flu-like symptoms and an additional 10 people for any symptomatic person who tests positive for the virus. That level of testing — which, according to researchers, is the minimum necessary to mitigate the disease — would require a significant increase over the number of daily tests currently being performed. Their estimates for the testing required to suppress the spread of the virus aremuch higher.
Aside from current testing levels, another important indicator of a state’s testing performance is its positive test rate, which is the percent of tests that come back positive. Lower rates suggest that testing is more widespread and that it is not limited to those with severe symptoms. Positive rates should be at or below 5 percent for at least 14 days before a state or country can safely reopen, according to the World Health Organization. In the United States, the current positive rate is 6 percent.
Where testing is far below recommended levels
Most states remain far from the minimum level of testing needed to reduce the spread of the virus.
Rate of testing compared to target
States are ordered by current testing shortfall
Where testing is above or near recommended levels
Over time, some states have reached the minimum testing target, and a few have exceeded it.

Note: Testing targets are calculated daily using the methodologydevelopedby the Harvard Global Health Institute (exact figures may differ because of recent changes in underlying projections). Two-week rolling averages are calculated using the most recent 14 days for which data is available. Some states may include non-diagnostic tests, like antibody tests, in the data they release, which can affect reported testing rates. Some states don’t consistently release data on current hospitalizations (see more information about missing datahere.) Case data is from the Covid Tracking Project for consistency with daily testing data.
Because of a data issue, earlier versions of this article, which had been updated daily, gave incorrect figures for state and national testing targets during the period of publication from Nov. 2 to Nov. 11. The article now reflects targets as of Nov. 1, not through Nov. 11. |

How China Is Reshaping the Coronavirus Narrative
We looked at China’s expansive propaganda system aimed at foreigners and analyzed thousands of English-language tweets from state media and diplomats. Here are the coronavirus messages China is projecting to the world.
The Chinese government has one of the most extensive propaganda networks in the world inside the country, but it also aggressively works to influence how it’s perceived outside its borders. “Good morning, President Xi!” China has invested billions into bolstering its image abroad. Its state-run news outlets push out messages in English around the clock — “You’re watching CGTN.” “Live in Beijing.” “From Nairobi.” “Washington, D.C.” — and its diplomats have flocked to Twitter in the last year. But what happens when this massive P.R. apparatus has to do major damage control? We analyzed thousands of tweets from Chinese state media and official accounts and found three dominant messages China wants to project to the world. Here’s what we learned. A novel coronavirus hit the Chinese city of Wuhan in January. Early whistleblowers were silenced. People were angry about a government cover-up. But in the majority of tweets we analyzed, state-owned publications pushed a much more optimistic view, promoting what they said was an effective response. They are sharing videos like this. The Chinese Communist Party refers to this as positive energy, only focusing on the bright side of an issue. China did take drastic measures to try and stem the outbreak, but that’s the only story China wants the world to see. And state media is eager to run praise from foreign experts to back up China’s successes. One tweet from state media that did reveal Chinese citizens’ discontent — — it was quickly deleted. Once the virus spread across the world, China started positioning itself as being at the forefront of fighting the pandemic. It presented itself as a partner, a grateful recipient, and more recently a selfless leader, highlighting large donations from Chinese companies and the government. China hasn’t typically disparaged other countries’ responses to the virus, with one exception — the United States. “President Donald Trump has been accused of denying, downplaying and outright rejecting the concerns over the Covid-19 outbreak.” Another thing we noticed are Chinese outlets disputing the origin of the virus. It all started in late February with a renowned Chinese epidemiologist. Around the same time, the C.D.C. reported the first case in the United States with an unknown origin. A screenshot of the announcement incorrectly translated in Chinese began to trend online and was untouched by Chinese government censors. And a high-ranking government spokesperson actively pushed disinformation about where the virus came from. A government giving an optimistic spin to bad news is not unique. “We want to go big, go solid. The country is very strong. We’ve never been so strong.” But the scale of the Chinese propaganda machine is, and it’s clear that it’s being deployed to try and tell the world a new story about the coronavirus pandemic.

Harnessing the left, Ed Markey easily fended off Joe Kennedy, who didn’t offer a rationale for firing the incumbent and got rejected for his ambition.Read more ›
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Over all, today’s election in Massachusetts went smoothly in contrast to those primaries we saw earlier in states such as Wisconsin and Georgia.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
This could be one of those nights we go to bed without knowing the outcome of a race, and I’m talking about the seat that Joe Kennedy relinquished to run for Senate.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
This 4th District race is super close between Jesse Mermell and Jake Auchincloss — too close to call, even though the vote tally appears complete in all but a few townships.Mass. 4th District results ›
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Markey pivoted to his central issue, the Green New Deal. “We took unapologetically progressive stances on all of them,” he said. “We never blinked.”
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Markey’s speech was a full-throated rallying cry to progressives and young voters. “Today and every day, I say, Black Lives Matter,” he said.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
“The progressive movement knows how to fight. We will not surrender. We know our work is not done,” Markey says. “And priority No. 1 is to remove Donald Trump from the White House."
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Markey speaks directly to the young people who have propelled him to victory. “Don’t just challenge the status quo. Dismantle it. Take over.”
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
“If we all believe in each other, we may just get my sneakers to last another eight weeks on the campaign trail,” Markey says. Everyone loves the sneakers.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Markey’s out, addressing his supporters in Malden. He says he owes this win to young people. “Thank you for believing in me, as I believe in you.”
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
In the 4th Congressional District Republican primary, Julie Hall, a retired Air Force colonel, has defeated Air Force veteran David Rosa.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
In the 4th Congressional District race, interesting that Jesse Mermell defeated Jake Auchincloss in Newton, where he serves as city councilor.Mass. 4th District results ›
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Jesse Mermell, who has taken the lead in the 4th District, has served as a V.P. at Planned Parenthood of Massachusetts and a communications adviser to former Gov. Deval Patrick.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
We’re mostly waiting now for the outcome of the Fourth Congressional District race — the seat that Joe Kennedy gave up because he decided to run for Senate.Mass. 4th District results ›
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
From this point forward, candidates in Massachusetts would be foolish to ignore what motivated, organized young people can do for a campaign.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Oooooh, now they’re playing Taylor Swift’s “The Last Great American Dynasty” at Ed Markey’s Zoom victory party.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
With the Democratic party so dominant in Massachusetts, it’s likely that the winners of today’s Democratic primaries will go on to win in November.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
It’s worth noting that five of the Democratic congressional primaries in Massachusetts — which has nine districts — were uncontested today.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
They’re listening to Lizzo at Ed Markey’s Zoom victory party. His supporters also seem to like exposed brick.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Kennedy never quite got past that question, “Why are you running?” I assume the calculus was that Markey’s seat was his best opening, but that’s not a great answer for TV.
Astead HerndonSept. 1, 2020
Markey succeeded in making this about more than who is the progressive, but about whether Kennedy had proved his case for the Senate.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Right now I think it’s a challenge for a white man, even a young one, to present himself as the face of change to Democratic voters.
Astead HerndonSept. 1, 2020
What does Kennedy do now? He could land in a Biden administration, but it’s a blow for someone who was recently giving the Democratic response to Trump’s State of the Union.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Kennedy was dry-eyed for the length of the speech, but his voice trembled a little as he addressed a few words to his sleeping children. “Always be in the ring,” he told them.
Astead HerndonSept. 1, 2020
Did Kennedy identify as a progressive before this race? I know the Markey primary forced him into that corner, but I wonder where he goes ideologically next.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
We can now call the 8th District race. Rep. Stephen Lynch easily held off a challenge from a progressive opponent, Robbie Goldstein. He’s held a seat in Congress since 2001.Mass. 8th District results ›
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
One word notably absent from Joe Kennedy’s concession speech: progressive. Instead he talked about poor people, kitchen tables stacked with bills.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
On tonight’s historical benchmark, of a Kennedy losing a race in Massachusetts: "To my family … whose name was invoked far more often than I anticipated in this race … You are my heroes.”
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Kennedy is speaking about the working-class communities that were his biggest reservoirs of support. “No matter the results tonight, I would do this again with all of you in a heartbeat.”
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Kennedy is speaking to his supporters. Says he just placed a call to Markey. “The senator is a good man,” he says. “You have never heard me say otherwise.”
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Ed Markey, who has served in Congress for 43 years, easily defeated a scion of one of the country’s most storied political families.
Reid EpsteinSept. 1, 2020
There is now a cat in the Ed Markey Zoom victory party.

We have a race call: The incumbent Senator Edward J. Markey has beaten back a challenge by Joseph P. Kennedy III to win the Democratic primary in Massachusetts.Read more ›

A reader notes that Joe Kennedy III is barely winning 30% of the vote in Brookline, the city where John F. Kennedy was born. He’s around 18% in Cambridge. Ouch.Town-by-town results ›

Alex Morse’s campaign — and the sexual misconduct allegations against him that quickly unraveled — were the topic of a story last week by our colleague Jeremy Peters.Read more ›
Jonathan MartinSept. 1, 2020
There’s an important difference between Neal’s district and the five where incumbent House Dems have lost over the last two cycles: It is not anchored in/around a big city.
Astead HerndonSept. 1, 2020
Cori Bush showed that the Justice Democrats could beat established Black Democrats in St. Louis. Morse’s loss shows they have a steeper hill among working-class white voters.Read more ›

Have there really been no votes posted yet in Boston?
Reid EpsteinSept. 1, 2020
There was some talk early last year that John Tierney, whom Moulton ousted in a 2014 primary, was recruiting a challenger to Moulton, but a serious candidate with real funding never materialized.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Moulton’s primary opponents had attempted to capitalize on his opposition to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, but he won re-election by an overwhelming margin.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Seth Moulton, a Marine veteran who served in Iraq, was first elected to Congress in 2014. He won the 2018 general election with 65% of the vote.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
In the 6th Congressional District, the incumbent Seth Moulton has been declared the winner by The Associated Press. He briefly ran for the Democratic presidential nomination.Mass. 6th District results ›

A source texts: “The Ed Markey Zoom election night party is unreal.” Apparently Jonathan Van Ness from “Queer Eye" just joined to entertain Markey supporters.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Kennedy’s team wasn’t reckless — polls were telling them he could win. But they did not anticipate what an A.O.C. endorsement meant, what the Sunrise Movement meant.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Markey’s work on the Green New Deal, which he introduced last year with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, was central in turning this race around for him.
Isabella Grullón PazSept. 1, 2020
Along more traditional lines in the First District, Pelosi is supporting Richard Neal, the incumbent, while Ocasio-Cortez is supporting Morse, his progressive challenger.
Isabella Grullón PazSept. 1, 2020
Pelosi endorsed Joe Kennedy, 39, while Ocasio-Cortez threw her support behind Ed Markey, 74, tweeting that “It’s not your age that counts — it’s the age of your ideas.”
Isabella Grullón PazSept. 1, 2020
Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York have thrown their support behind opposing candidates in the Senate race and the First District.
Astead HerndonSept. 1, 2020
Those numbers are staggering. A Kennedy! In Somerville! Just trounced. He never answered the Why Run question for those voters, even outside of progressive policy.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Well, Ed Markey has officially trounced Joe Kennedy in Somerville, outside Boston, with 80 percent of the vote.Town-by-town results ›
Isabella Grullón PazSept. 1, 2020
In the Fourth Congressional District, where Kennedy is vacating his seat, winning the Democratic nomination essentially guarantees a victory in the general election.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Jake Auchincloss, running to replace Joe Kennedy, is regarded as a moderate. He was once a registered Republican and worked for the election of Gov. Charlie Baker, a Republican.
Astead HerndonSept. 1, 2020
Jesse Mermell is one of Representative Ayanna Pressley’s best friends but has not been able to get progressives to rally around her candidacy. Auchincloss has capitalized.Mass. 4th District results ›
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
That race in the Fourth Congressional District is so crowded that I think it gives Auchincloss an advantage — the progressive vote is so split.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Jake Auchincloss is considered the favorite to replace Joe Kennedy in Congress, and the very early returns we’re getting show him leading his nearest opponent, Jesse Mermell.Mass. 4th District results ›
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Markey has had fun with the Kennedy contrast, greeting a Globe columnist in the driveway of the modest Malden home where he grew up by saying, “Welcome to the compound!”
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
On the subject of “ask ya fatha,” I think Markey has benefited from his accent in this race. He’s not patrician, and that distinguishes him from Kennedy.
Reid EpsteinSept. 1, 2020
After the debate Markey released an online video that ended with a callout to the most famous Kennedy line of all: “It’s time to start asking what your country can do for you.”
Reid EpsteinSept. 1, 2020
It’s also worth noting that Markey has taken direct aim at the Kennedy legacy. During a debate he howled “ask your father” who is funding Kennedy’s super PAC.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Jake Auchincloss’s family tree includes Gore Vidal and Jackie Kennedy and his father, Hugh Auchincloss, is the top deputy to Dr. Anthony Fauci.Mass. 4th District results ›
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Jake Auchincloss, one of the candidates running in the 4th Congressional District to replace Joe Kennedy, also comes from a storied political family.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Two days ago, Beto O’Rourke was in the news again, endorsing Representative Joe Kennedy III, his former colleague in the House of Representatives.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
The Kennedy name is not working the same way with younger voters. To a lot of them, the name scans as privilege, entitlement.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
There is still a deep reverence for the Kennedy name among older voters; I met women in their 60s or 70s who were clearly thrilled just to be in the room at Joe’s campaign events.
Astead HerndonSept. 1, 2020
These things are hard to separate: Has Markey not done enough to be known in Black communities? Maybe. Is Kennedy helped by his last name? Also a big possibility.
Astead HerndonSept. 1, 2020
Kennedy has touted his support among nonwhite voters to accuse Markey’s progressive base of hypocrisy. Markey’s defenders say Kennedy’s support is more due to name recognition.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Kennedy has actually built his lead among Black voters: He’s up by 54%-35% among nonwhite voters, according to a Suffolk U. poll. So we’ll see which groups turned out today.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
In the Kennedy-Markey race, recent polls suggest a big race gap. While Markey has been surging among young voters and progressives, Kennedy has a solid lead among Black voters.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Today’s Senate primary in Massachusetts tests the resilience of one of the Democratic Party’s most revered political dynasties, the Kennedy family.

Progressive leaders and groups have also tried to boost Alex Morse in Western Massachusetts, and those efforts may fall short.Read more ›
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Tonight’s results will give us a good sense of the muscle of the progressive left in Massachusetts. We’ve seen what they did for Markey, who started 14 points behind Kennedy.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Amid the pandemic, the Massachusetts legislature required Secretary of State Bill Galvin to mail absentee voting applications to all 4.58 million registered voters.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Progressives who want to support women and people of color may be concerned that Joe Kennedy, a young white man, could stay in the Senate for decades.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
One theory I heard is that progressives are rallying around figures who they expect to step aside in the next cycle, when there may be women and people of color ready to run.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
It seems likely to be a good night for older white Catholic men, who are positioned to fight off much younger challengers. Ed Markey is 74, Richie Neal is 71, Stephen Lynch is 65.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Will we get the full Massachusetts results tonight? Bill Galvin, the secretary of state, said Monday it was unlikely. But officials seemed more optimistic today.

Can I just say what a treat it is to have town-by-town election results? This seems to be a New England phenomenon but if it were up to me we’d get them everywhere.

Massachusetts also set up more than 190 “drop boxes” around the state to provide convenient places for voters to turn in their ballots.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Bill Galvin, the Massachusetts secretary of state, had urged voters to deliver their “mail” ballots in person to town or city halls, avoiding postal delays.

As of Monday, more than 768,000 Democratic ballots and more than 88,000 Republican ballots had already been cast in mail voting and in-person early voting.
Astead HerndonSept. 1, 2020
Today’s races show the outgrowth of these changes, with Alex Morse running in MA-1, but also with the youthful organizing and donations that have flowed to Senator Ed Markey.
Astead HerndonSept. 1, 2020
On the national stage, Boston’s political changes began with Rep. Ayanna Pressley’s win in 2018. But there were signs of change before that, particularly at the city council level.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Mayoral and governor’s races are coming up, and we’ll see some of these women and people of color try to break through to the donor class. It costs a lot to run here, though.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
There are plenty of talented women and people of color winning races down ballot, by the way. Boston elected a city council dominated by women and people of color.

Before 1990, the record for primary turnout was set in 1982 when Michael S. Dukakis defeated the incumbent governor, Edward J. King, in a bitterly fought Democratic primary.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
The previous record in a Mass. primary was 1.5 million votes. That was in 1990, when Democrats nominated Dr. John Silber to run for governor, and Republicans picked William Weld.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Massachusetts, despite its political liberalism, has a dismal record of electing women or people of color. The state didn’t elect a female senator until Elizabeth Warren, in 2012.
Ellen BarrySept. 1, 2020
Looking out at these races tonight, it’s notable how many of them feature young white men trying to replace older white men.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
This was the first primary in which Massachusetts permitted early voting, although the state previously held early voting in general elections.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
The total turnout has been boosted by unprecedented levels of mail-in voting and early voting in a primary, during the coronavirus pandemic.
Stephanie SaulSept. 1, 2020
Massachusetts officials were expecting record turnout for this primary, estimating that more than 1.2 million Democrats would cast ballots, and more than 150,000 Republicans.

The 2020 Baseball Trivia Extravaganza
ByTYLER KEPNERDEC. 24, 2020
This test is not for the faint of heart, or the casual fan. See how your knowledge of the sport holds up in our fourth annual holiday baseball quiz.
The baseball community lost some of its proudest pillars in this year of sorrow, six Hall of Famers whose careers enchanted us from the early-1950s til the mid-1980s: Al Kaline in April, and then, in a six-week stretch starting Aug. 31, Tom Seaver, Lou Brock, Bob Gibson, Whitey Ford and Joe Morgan.
An off-the-field original also died this fall: Jack Scheuer (pronounced “Shore”), 88, a long-time Philadelphia sportswriter for the Associated Press. Jack’s first love was Big 5 basketball — he had his own key to the Palestra — but I knew him as the trivia guru of the Phillies press box, first at Veterans Stadium and then at Citizens Bank Park.
You couldn’t miss Jack: shock of white hair, tanned face as weathered as a catcher’s mitt, perpetual twinkle in his eye. I’d usually catch him strolling through the box, clutching a cup of Turkey Hill ice cream, and I tended to skip past the pleasantries.
“What do you got for me tonight, Jack?” I’d ask. He’d cock his head, smile and within seconds come up with a trivia question to consume me for the next couple of innings. I’d see him off and on for 30 years, and he never let me down. Jack had a bottomless baseball brain, and he taught me the difference between a good and bad trivia question.
How many career wins did Cy Young have? That’s a bad question. You know right away that the answer is 511, or you don’t know it at all.
A great question is one that can be answered with a little bit (or a lot) of logical thinking. Here’s a favorite of Jack’s: who is the only player to collect 500 hits for four different teams?
You narrow the answer into subcategories, because you know the player had at least 2,000 hits and moved around a lot, likely within the last 50 years or so, when player movement escalated. Then it becomes a test of remembering the careers of well-traveled players who spent at least three and probably four years in four different spots. Maybe Roberto Alomar? What about Scott Rolen, Gary Sheffield or Dave Winfield? (The answer: Rusty Staub, with the Astros, Expos, Mets and Tigers.)
Hopefully, some of the questions in this annual 50-question holiday spectacular would have made Jack proud. This one’s dedicated to him, and features categories on the greats we lost in 2020; the number 21; the pennant-winning Dodgers and Rays; retired numbers and more. Lift a glass of eggnog and enjoy!

About the data
In data for Arizona, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state, as well as health districts or county governments that often report ahead of the state. The state releases new data once a week. Prior to Feb. 27, 2022, it released new data data daily. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.
The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test.Probable cases and deathscount individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses anadjustment methodto vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities.

The presidential race in Arizona remained too close to call on Tuesday evening, but Joseph R. Biden Jr. held a lead in the state’s biggest city. Phoenix and its suburbs swung to the left, making it possible that Mr. Biden wins Arizona, even as other areas shifted to President Trump.

Maricopa County comprises 60 percent of the state’s voters and is home to Phoenix. Mr. Trump narrowly won the county in 2016, and support for Republicans has slipped there in recent elections. Voters there supported Kyrsten Sinema, a Democrat, in the 2018 Senate race.

WithinMaricopa County, Mr. Biden won in most precincts with a majority Hispanic population, though often with smaller margins than Democrats saw in 2016.
Mr. Biden also won in many precincts that skewed younger.
The shift to the left in Maricopa County has helped put Mr. Biden ahead statewide. His reportedly strong support among Native Americans in the state has also been a benefit.

Still, as of Tuesday evening, Mr. Biden led by only about half a percentage point. A Democratic candidate for president has not won Arizona since Bill Clinton in 1996 — and he was the first Democrat to win there since Harry S. Truman in 1948.

Talk
Things Keep Getting Scarier. He Can Help You Cope.
ByDavid MarcheseApril 13, 2020
Jack Kornfield, one of America’s true mindfulness pioneers, can talk you through this.
Things Keep Getting Scarier. He Can Help You Cope.
By David Marchese
In this turbulent moment, a lot of us — myself included — are feeling fear, anxiety and grief. And a lot of us, I suspect, could use some help managing those difficult emotions and thoughts. I had been wanting to talk to someone who could answer that question with practicality and steadying wisdom, so I got in touch with Jack Kornfield, whose work has offered that to me and a great many others over the years. A clinical psychologist and author whose books have sold over a million copies, Kornfield is one of America’s true mindfulness pioneers, a man who helped popularize the once-exotic practices he learned more than 50 years ago when he began training as a Buddhist monk. “Epidemics are a part of the cycle of life on this planet,” Kornfield said. “The choice is how we respond. With greed and hatred and fear and ignorance? Or with generosity, clarity, steadiness and love?”
People reading this might be scared of contracting Covid-19 themselves, or fear that someone they love might contract it. Is there something, even small, that you can share that can help us all feel a little steadier?What’s needed in a time like this, David, are ways to steady the heart, which is the essence of your question. The first step is acknowledgment and the willingness to be present. You could almost whisper to yourself, “Sadness, fear, anxiety, grief, longing,” as if to bow to that feeling and hold it with respect. That allows the feeling to open — maybe even intensify for a bit — but eventually to soften. The next step is to bring in a sense of compassion for all the fears and confusion and helplessness. These feelings are all part of the fight-flight-or-freeze instinct in the body and the mind. If I make space for the feelings and they have time to be felt, it’s as if my awareness gets bigger and I can hold all of this with greater ease and compassion and presence and steadiness.
But what you described sounds like something you would do alone before going to bed or something. What about those times during the day when, I don’t know, you’ve been reading scary things about coronavirus-death projection, and your kids are going stir-crazy from quarantining, and you feel that all your stress is about to bubble over? We don’t always have the luxury of dealing with anxiety in some period of quiet reflection.I love the line from the Japanese Zen poetRyokan Taigu.He wrote: “Last year, a foolish monk. This year, no change.” So the first thing is to acknowledge that this is just our humanity. Your feelings are your organism trying to handle things. The second thing is what you teach kids: Take a pause. You don’t have to sit and do some formal meditation. In that moment when you’re about to snap, take a breath, turn away. Bring that quality of loving awareness, and name the feeling gently — upset, worried, frightened or whatever it might be — and then, almost as if you could put your hand on your heart, say: “Thank you for trying to protect me. I’m OK.” That can take 10 seconds, and it allows us to reset our consciousness. All the good neuroscience on trauma and its release is based on this kind of caring attention.
Should we be trying to find some equilibrium between our feelings and other people’s? It can be hard when other people — parents or friends, say — aren’t taking the pandemic as seriously as we want them to. And on the flip side, it’s hard to know how to respond if someone you care about is more anxious than you are. You don’t want to diminish what they’re going through, but you also can’t feel something you’re not feeling.Let’s get real, baby. You have enough trouble managing your own damn feelings, and now you want to manage the feelings of others? The real answer is to acknowledge that you’ll have cycles where you’ll get lost in anxiety or fear — and by the time this article comes out, I think we’re going to be dealing more with grief than with fear. But what you can tend is yourself. You can breathe a bit and acknowledge what you’re feeling and what your judgment of others is: “I wish they weren’t so anxious” or “I wish they weren’t so blasé.” And you can feel all that with some kindness and say, “I’m just trying to protect myself and others the best I can, and they are doing the best they can.”
Very few people’s lives are going to be untouched in some way by death after all this is done. How are you counseling people in that regard? It all seems so unexpected and senseless.I’m not counseling people in any particular way. Some grieve by expressing it in wildly powerful ways, and some grieve more quietly. I’ve come to respect that grief knows its own way, and we have to honor that. But what I’m saying to you is, by the time this article comes out, there will be people we know who’ve died. There will be people we know in the hospital. We’ll be holding all of that in our hearts, and it will come in its own way as grief. So I’m counseling people on holding their humanity and emotions with compassion. There’ll be sadness and tears, all those feelings. And when I allow myself to quiet and feel them and say, “All right, show yourself to me,” then they do open. You’re not trying to fix them. You hold them, and gradually they display and settle, and you feel well-being or steadiness. That’s the first thing to say.
What’s the second?There’s lots to say. Some people need to grieve individually. Then some need to grieve together, whether it’s online or making a piece of art with others, writing something. There are so many ways to help people. Another way is to use the inner strength of our imagination. Everything human that we’ve created comes from that capacity. Every amazing building in New York where you are, David, was first pictured in somebody’s mind. And in the same way, we can allow ourselves to have an image for our grief. It can be the image of a weeping being or a cup overflowing. Or we can place our grief, in our minds, in the lap of Mother Mary or Guanyin,the bodhisattva of compassion.Or in the generations of scientists and physicians who have held us through epidemics in the past and say to ourselves: “We’ve been through this before. We know how to do this.” Just so you’re not carrying it yourself. There’s a collective of caring beings, both present and past, who are with you.
The feeling that we have so little control over how death could touch us in this instance — that’s what a lot of these current anxieties come down to, right? We’re worried about ourselves or the ones we love dying from Covid-19.You’re asking the question that goes to the hearts of the people who will be reading. Death is a great mystery. It’s wild that we have our personalities and bodies and full lives and families and then, poof, they’re gone. We look for a story and understanding in our lives, but first we’re faced with the mystery of death. What I know from50 years of meditationand doing hospice work is that we are not just this body. You are made of spirit. And the spirit makes it so that even if people have died, we’re still profoundly connected to them in love. In that sense, they haven’t exactly died. They are in us, not only in our hearts but also somehow in our very being. Knowing this does not take the grief away, and it doesn’t take away the power of that grief to shake us to our roots, but it lets us know something bigger than all of that: Who I am is not just this body. Weareconsciousness.
Does it matter if I don’t believe that? I believe that when we die, we’re gone. Is there still comfort I can take in what you’re saying?Doesn’t matter in the slightest. I was pushing the envelope so that those who were reading and were interested could explore it. You know,when I was a kid,if it was a clear night, I used to go outside and lie in the grass. I would imagine that I wasn’t looking up at the stars but that I was looking down into a vast sea of stars. It gave me this combination of awe and fear and wonder. What is our place in the universe? It is so vast. So when we talk about questions of death, we can bringallof our ideas to them. I’ve had my own very powerful experiences, but these aren’t things that I would ask someone to believe. You’re a human being on this earth for this time, and you have not just a body but a miraculous consciousness. There’s no good science about consciousness, really. It’s still a mystery. I want to add something entirely different, if I may.
Of course.In the Buddhist tradition, there are beings called bodhisattvas. A bodhisattva vows to alleviate suffering and bring blessings in every circumstance. They choose to live with dignity and courage and radiate compassion for all. The beautiful thing is that we can see bodhisattvas all around. We see them in the bravery of the health care workers or the unheralded ones who drive the trucks and stock the shelves of our grocery stores so we can all continue to eat. And now it’s time to addourpart to this great dance. This is what we are here for. It’s time to make a vow, to sit quietly, rest your heart and ask, “What is my best intention, my most noble aspiration in this difficult time?” If you quiet yourself, your heart will answer. The answer could be simple: “I vow to be kind no matter what.” And when you find the answer in yourself, write it down and place it somewhere you’ll remember. Then when you feel lost or confused, take a breath and remember that vow. Because it’s time to become the lamp in the darkness, David. Where others hoard, you help. Where others deceive, you stand up for truth. Where others are uncaring, you become kind and respectful. This is what’s possible for us as human beings in this moment.
It’s a particularly tough time for health care workers and their families. How might we ease their thinking?So my daughter’s husband works in an urban fire department. Like many first responders, he does not have masks. About 80 percent of his work is emergency medical calls. And today I spent time talking withVivek Murthy,who’s been advocating on behalf of hospitals and healthcare workers in order to get them the personal protective equipment and ventilators they need. He’s in a family of physicians, and they’re going in without protective equipment. So what could I say to all these people? My eyes tear up. I can say that in spite of the fear and the real possibility of dying or infecting others around you, this is what you trained for. This is the oath you took. We’ve tended one another through epidemics before, and now it is our time to do it again. And do not feel that you’re alone. Let your heart open, and feel the web of physicians and nurses and front-line responders around the world who are willingly placing themselves at the service of humanity. You are showing how we can care for one another in a crisis. You have a team of a million who are voluntarily linking hands and saying, “We know how to do this.” I could weep as I say that, because it’s not something glib. It’s true. I want to pause for a second, David.
Sure.How is this going for you?
What do you mean by that?Are you getting whatyouwant and need?
Oh. Yeah, I think so. To be totally honest, and I don’t mean to be unprofessional, the challenge for me is not to let this devolve into my asking you a bunch of questions that relate only to me and how I’m feeling.You can do that. That could make it more interesting for people. I want this to be useful, David.
Well, if you’re willing to indulge me: I feel that I’m lucky enough not to have had to deal with any serious health issues, and I’m doing a good job of being a husband and a dad in this weird time. So I’m fine. I’m lucky, and I’m fine. But just underneath that feeling of fine is a real strain of fear and uncertainty. I don’t know what my question is. I guess I just want someone to tell me that having those conflicting feelings — and feeling guilt about being scared while I’m in such a relatively fortunate position — is all OK.How does it feel to say all that out loud to me? My guess is that it’s helpful, because you’re acknowledging: “I’m doing OK. Even though the virus is rampaging through New York City, I have a job, and I have my family sequestered for now.” So you can feel all those things. You can feel guilt. All of those are natural, and it’s not helpful to judge the feelings, because you don’t ask for them. They arise. But what you can do, as you just did, is acknowledge that these are all part of being human and that the field of mindfulness can hold them. Then you can say, “How do I tend this moment?” You’re tending it by doing your work, which is a source of understanding. You’re tending your family. And your acknowledgment of this is helpful. It can make other people feel like, “Oh, it’s OK to be a human being.”
How do we strike any sort of balance between accepting how little control we have as individuals in this situation and not letting that acceptance turn into resignation?That’s a beautiful question. It’s posed in a way that sets up a straw man: Either we accept things the way they are and don’t try to change anything, or we realize that it’s our job to change the whole world, which would be a heavy burden. The reality is the middle path. I go back to theserenity prayer.In a similar way, with this pandemic, we have to accept where we are, the uncertainty of it, and then say, “All right, I’m going to steady my own heart and see how I can contribute.” If you’re a scientist, you contribute in your lab. If you’re a poet, like those people singing from the balconies in Italy, send your poems out and buoy up the hearts of others. If you have the capacity, buy groceries for your neighbors. So it’s not about passivity. In Zen, they say there are only two things: You sit, and you sweep the garden. So you quiet the mind, and once you’ve done that, you get up and tend the garden with the gifts you’ve been given.
When you mentioned the serenity prayer just now, it made me think of recovery programs and the idea of taking things one day at a time. The uncertainty about how long the pandemic and the social distancing and the quarantining will last is a big part of what’s so unsettling. It’s hard to imagine Month No. 3 of this, you know?Let me ask you a question.
OK.When you live in speculative thoughts — “How long is it going to last?” “Will I make it through three more days or three more months?” — how does that make you feel?
I know where this is going.Is that thinking helpful in some way?
Nope.All right. We’re just trying to be human and practical and wise in this interview, right? So you can either spend your time worrying, which you just noted doesn’t actually help, or you can say: “I don’t know how long it will be, but let me do the most magnificent work I can do. Let me hone my interviews. Let me be there for my wife and children. Let me live in this life fully.” That’s what one day at a time means. It’s important to know that you don’t have to believe all your thoughts. You can choose the ones that are helpful.
You once spent more than a year ata monastery in silence.That was volitional, obviously, but can you share anything about how to adapt to disconnection and solitude?I wouldn’t want to set any ideal, because temperaments are very different. Instead I would say, in the solitude or in the sequestering, let yourself find ways that nurture you. It may be listening to music or watching old movies or reading. And people will find that they might feel stir-crazy, but if they look closely, there will be moments that get more still. Moments of presence or contentment that come unbidden because we have been quiet. And if you can, pause before you distract yourself with a video and acknowledge, “I’m getting stir-crazy.” Take a breath, and hold that restlessness. Allow it to be held with some kindness, and it will start to settle down. Doing that will open you to something more mysterious. Which is that you’ve realized: “I can tolerate this. Maybe I can live a little easier.” This kind of attention is what neuroscientists call widening the window of tolerance.
Are you finding it more difficult to practice mindfulness these days? Although I guess you’re probably long past having that problem.Give me a break, David. I worry about dying. I’m almost 75 years old. I’ve had many blessings, and in a lot of ways I feel I’m ready to die, but I know I don’t want to leave my daughter, my grandchildren, my wife. But when the time comes, I will let go. So nobody’spastanything. We all are exactly where we are.

About the data
In data for Arkansas, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state. The state typically releases new data each day. From June 26 to July 23, 2021, it released new data on weekdays only. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.
The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test.Probable cases and deathscount individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses anadjustment methodto vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities.

Protest Over Staten Island Coronavirus Restrictions
Mac’s Public House on Staten Island became a flashpoint after the tavern’s manager was arrested on Tuesday for ignoring Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo’s coronavirus restrictions which mandate a 10 p.m. curfew at bars.
“The mayor and the governor — look around. Look around, here. Look what you made us do. Look what you made good hard-working, tax-paying Americans do.” Protester: “You’re killing us.” “It seems that at the worst times is when I’m the proudest to be a New Yorker. Last time I felt this proud was, unfortunately, during Hurricane Sandy, when all of us came together as a community, walking down in New Dorp Beach, all helping each other. And this is exactly what happened then is happening now. We take back our community. We’re all together. We take back Staten Island, tonight.” [cheering] Crowd: “U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!”

Joe Biden Will Probably Win the Democratic Nomination. Here’s How He Did It.
Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s winning streak has now given him a lead that will be nearly impossible for Senator Bernie Sanders to overcome.
[MUSIC PLAYING] “Good morning.” “Good morning.” “Good morning.” So this is Joe Biden in January of 2017 during his last few weeks as vice president. “Do we know [INAUDIBLE]” He was surprised with the Presidential Medal of Freedom. “Hey, guys.” And he was headed home to Delaware. “Back on Amtrak.” Fast forward to the present, and it now looks pretty clear that Joe Biden will be the Democratic nominee for president. The path to victory has continued to narrow for Bernie Sanders. So how did we get here? And how did Joe Biden pull it off? The campaign begins after the 2018 midterm elections. “The Democrats will win the majority in the U.S. House of Representatives —” They are determined, more than ever, to take the fight in 2020 to Donald Trump. “You know, the Democrats are AWOL. They’re missing in action.” “Today, I am announcing my candidacy for president —” Biden enters the race as a clear front-runner, lifted by the positive feelings that so many Democrats have about his role during the Obama administration. “I’m— I’m paying for Joe, so don’t take his money.” [LAUGHTER] But there are persistent questions about just how ready he is for a campaign in 2020 and just how effectively he can defend his very, very long record in government. “I’m going to now direct this at Vice President Biden.” He is on the defensive over and over. “Do you agree today that you were wrong to oppose busing in America then?” “No.” Challenged by other candidates. “Are you forgetting—” “It’s automatic to be enforced.” ”—what you said two minutes ago?” Biden’s greatest difficulties come in the first states to vote, Iowa and New Hampshire. And these are places that really reward candidates with strong organization on the ground. Throughout the summer and the fall, we hear, over and over, from people in Iowa and New Hampshire, that Joe Biden does not have that kind of organization. And then the night of the caucuses happened. He comes in fourth place in Iowa. And when the campaign moves to New Hampshire, he fares even worse. He is in fifth place. Much of the political world, essentially, counts out Joe Biden. They see that his fund-raising has dried up. They see that his poll numbers have crashed. “Now we’re going on to South Carolina and win. And now we’re going to take this back.” And Biden’s campaign keep saying, wait until South Carolina, a real turning point. “Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, South Carolina.” When that moment of victory came in South Carolina, it seemed to remind millions of people, all at once, of why they liked Joe Biden in the first place and to remind them in a convincing enough way for many of them to change their minds about who they were going to vote for in a matter of days, leading to just a total turnaround in this race. “I am ending my campaign and endorsing Joe Biden.” Two major candidates almost immediately drop out of the race. Then comes Super Tuesday. He wins 10 of the 14 states, some of them by absolutely enormous margins. And that’s when Joe Biden goes from being the comeback kid to a strong front-runner once again. “Who’s ready to go to the center of the arena, who is our best shot to beat Donald Trump.” And from there, Joe Biden has only continued to widen his delegate lead. He persuaded the significant majority of Democratic voters that he was, by far, the strongest candidate to oppose Donald Trump in the general election. He put together a powerful coalition that combined some of the most loyal constituencies in the Democratic Party, especially African-Americans and women. “Folks, the vote is in your hands, not a joke. You can control this outcome.” With some of the newer constituencies that have supported Democrats since President Trump’s election, moderate suburban white voters who greatly preferred Joe Biden to Bernie Sanders. Biden has emerged as the likely Democratic nominee at exactly the moment that the coronavirus has brought the campaign almost to a halt. “That means we have to do testing. We have to get the testing kits up and ready.” “And we’ll lead with science.” Biden’s campaign did not run the strongest campaign operationally. He was not a flawless candidate. “Now, now, shush.” But a lot of voters knew him well enough, or felt they did, to look past a lot of that and to embrace him in the end as what they saw as a safe choice. This has been a wild campaign so far. And now, with the coronavirus, there are even more questions arising about the campaign going forward and the election.

He’s a G.O.P. Insider and Trump’s Friend. He Says Vote Your Conscience.
By David Marchese
For more than 30 years, Armstrong Williams has been a Zelig of American conservatism. In the 1980s, he worked as an aide to Clarence Thomas when Thomas was the head of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Then Williams popped up again alongside Thomas in the early 1990s, acting as a spokesman during Thomas’s contentious Supreme Court nomination hearing. From there, Williams moved to TV and radio, hosting nationally syndicated talk shows as well as writing op-eds, also nationally syndicated. He got widespreadnegativeattention in 2005 when it was revealed that he’d been cheerleading for the No Child Left Behind Act without publicly disclosing that he was being paid by the Department of Education to promote it. The controversy slowed Williams, who advised Ben Carson during his 2016 presidential campaign, relatively briefly: “The Armstrong Williams Show” currently airs across the country, mostly on affiliates owned by the right-leaning Sinclair Broadcast Group. (The same Sinclair from which Williams bought several TV stations starting in 2013 under very, very favorable terms.) And last month, President Trump tapped Williams, who recently published a new book, “What Black and White America Must Do Now,” to conduct one of his first interviews after announcing his administration’s economic plan for Black Americans. “There is no way that someone who’s liberal and who happens to be Black could get a chance to sit down and talk to the president,” Williams says. “That’s just the way politics work.”
You’ve been deeply involved in conservative politics for a long time. You just published a book about race.How has President Trump changed the dynamics there?This is going to shock you: There has been no person who I’ve been up close to that has been more serious about the Black vote than Donald Trump. This guy has had real relationships, whether it was Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson. He had a relationship with Oprah Winfrey, with Don King. He may not always use the best rhetoric, but I don’t get bogged down in what he says — even what he did with theCentral Park Five.This guy has real relationships in that community.
Can you think of a relationship the president has with a Black person who isn’t rich or famous?His chauffeurs. I can’t get into it, because that’s personal. You may think that he brags about everything, but the relationship he has with everyday Black people, where he empowers them, he wants no credit for it.
You mentioned the Central Park Five. President Trump started talking about the death penalty around their case. So it’s probably an understatement to say he wasn’t using “the best rhetoric.” But more to the point, isn’t the quality of a president’s rhetoric important?I didn’t say it was not important. If you’re the president of the United States, what you say is critical. You instruct the nation. You can move markets. It’s important what you say and how you say it, but President Trump is different. He doesn’t understand the impact of his own words.
What do you make of your being able to say, about the president, that he doesn’t understand the impact of his own words?Wedon’t understand the impact of our words. We’re human beings. You can learn.
If Trump loses re-election, and particularly if he loses decisively, will there be any conservative soul-searching about the best way to move forward?Here is my answer: There are two types of Trump supporters. One is a cult following; they support him no matter what. Then there are the other ones. Much more intelligent. Much more sophisticated. They may not like his character, but they think,I’m going to hold my nose because it suits my agenda. That’s the calculation they make. As a Christian, I have a lot to pray about, because there are things about the president that I turn a blind eye to. I realize that I’m dumbing down my values in the process. So we make this calculation: It’s about the economy. It’s about deregulation. It’s about creating an environment where entrepreneurship and business can thrive. But when I go to bed at night and I get on my knees and pray, I never lie to myself. Because I know exactly what he is.
So what is he?He is flawed! This man, the fact that he was demanding to go back to the White House, where he could expose people to the coronavirus? He should be selfless. How can you even think about exposing people? That bothers me. He goes out on the debate stage, and hedoesn’t condemn white supremacy?Just condemn them! I can’t believe I’m being so blatant about this with you, David. I don’t know if he’s capable of being normal. People are trying to say he wasfaking having Covid-19.I know this man got the virus, OK? You know how I know? My videographer, a few days after the interview with the president, said hewasn’t feeling well.I said, “Where do you think all this started?” He said, “With the interview of the president.” I had to stop to think. What if he’s right? So I do know this man got it. There is no doubt in my mind.
You think your cameraman caught the coronavirus from the president?I’m not going to speculate. Listen, I was saying the same thing the president was saying about masks. I’m not saying that any longer. They must wear masks. I got a reality check. Who would be in that space with the president, and then your videographer contracted — I can’t ignore that. It hit home.
I’ve readyour books,which have to do with the idea that the Black electorate is fundamentally socially conservative. But Gerald Ford in 1976 was the last Republican presidential candidate to get even15 percentof the Black vote. What accounts for that disconnect?I’m glad you asked. I’ll tell you this: Most Blacks are socially conservative. There’s just one issue that they don’t believe the Republican Party can get right. It’s not the economy. It’s not creating more jobs. It’s not creating wealth and economic opportunity. They don’t trust the Republican Party on the issue of race. For some reason, they believe that if the Republicans win, they’ll turn back the clock. The Democrats have done a good job of making the community believe that. They referred to Donald Trump as a racist when he ran for president. So did they with Mitt Romney, George W. Bush, his father, Ronald Reagan, John McCain. That’s what is assigned to Republican candidates: They’re racist, they’re cold, they’re insensitive and they don’t care about us.
And that has nothing to do with policy?No. It’s perception. Look at the policies that uplift people and sustain them. Capitalism is the best instrument to uplift people out of poverty. People have to learn to work and do for themselves. They need to know how to create and use their hands to take care of their households. For me, I’man entrepreneur.I get into communities, find these young people, give them opportunity, let them know that corporate America is for them. It’s not racist.
I think some people on the left have a hard time understanding the calculation that goes into a person of color’s continuing to support a Republican Party that seems so intent on being the party of white grievance. What’s your response to that confusion?I’m a third-generation Republican. I never left the party of Lincoln. But I don’t feel that I belong to the Republican Party. The Republican Party belongs to me. No matter how flawed it may be, we must be a people where we always have someone at that table. You’ve got to have people inside the house. If we were not at the table, it would be frightening. It’s the things that I know — that if I had not been at the table, it could have been disastrous.
What’s an example?I saw it withSenator Strom Thurmond.He had so many people against his support of Martin Luther King’s birthday as a holiday. He didn’t see its value initially. I said: “But it has value. Do you understand what this country has done to Black people? You’ve got to right those wrongs.” I challenged him. I said, “Meet with Coretta Scott King, and that will give you a perspective.” Not only did he support it, he became the advocate for it. He was willing to get away from his peanut gallery to listen to a different perspective. That’s important.
You got an interview with Trump after he announced hiseconomic plan for Black Americans.Why did he go to you?I got a call saying, “We’re doing this, and the president thinks you’re the best person to do it.” I was a little uptight because I never said I would consider him a friend, because I don’t know howhefeels. So during the interview, he says: “Oh, we’ve known each other a long time. We’ve been friends a long time.” But in terms of a broadcaster, they were looking for the best vehicle for his message. Somebody who will not go and do some puff job, who is going to ask him tough questions.
I watched that interview. What do you think was the toughest question you asked?I said to him: “You know, Atlanta — it’s the bedrock of civil rights, the home of Martin Luther King. Martin Luther King talked about civil rights but said the next paradigm would be economic empowerment and entrepreneurship, and this is what you’re doing.” The president knows that I’m not out to do some “gotcha” question. And the more I asked, whether it was about the importance of entrepreneurship or homeownership, he really answered the question.
In that interview, he also said, “We were seeing amazing unity before the virus” and “We saved millions of lives because we closed up.” Did you think those were statements not worth following up on?I have so much I want to follow up on with the president, and I would love to have that opportunity.
Fifteen years ago, you had your scandal with the George W. Bush administration’sDepartment of Education.Would that situation have played out differently today? The fact that you had been a paid consultant — I feel like now people would almost take that kind of partisanship for granted.I’ve got to explain this to you. The fact that I was working with the Department of Education was disclosed. If you do your homework and look at what really happened, there’s nothing I did that was unethical or illegal. The only thing I did was decide to do business with the government while being in the media.
That was the unethical part.But I didn’t know that at the time, believe it or not. You have to also understand: I never wanted to do business with the government. I never should have accepted that contract, because in my heart I didn’t feel good about it. I went against my own judgment to engage with the government for No Child Left Behind. No one has to tell me when I screw up.
What would you like people to be thinking about when they’re in the voting booth on Nov. 3?That’s a good question. That’s one I did not anticipate. We’ve invested so much in our political parties that we’ve lost our own view of right and wrong. You must do an inventory of yourself and get away from Republicans and Democrats. You must ask yourself, What is best to move our country forward? What works best for your value system and where you see us going with the economy? We must vote our conscience.
And where does your conscience lead you?I never share with people whom I vote for. I like Trump. I do. But I’m going to do what’s in the best interest of the country. No matter what happens on Nov. 3, whether Donald Trump is re-elected or Joe Biden is our president, I will support him and accept the will of the people.
