American workers did not just quit their jobs, they quit mostly low-paid jobs or terrible conditions, bolstered by the greatest workplace leverage they’ve felt in 40 years. In “The Big Quit,” Jacob Rosenberg and Noah Lanard share many first-person stories of the bad bosses who pushed workers over the edge. Tim Murphy in “Better Call Ken” profiles Ken Paxton and the radical legal strategies the Texas attorney general used in his attempt to overturn the election that he is now using to gut Roe v. Wade. In “The Purity Trap,” Becca Andrews writes of her yearlong investigation of the school administrators who blamed and shamed female students for the assaults they encountered at a Bible college. Lori Teresa Yearwood writes of her escape from homelessness in “I am Not Your Project” only to find herself in a new battle with the debilitating projections from the system meant to “help” her.
