In “Facing Down Jim Crow, Again,” Ari Berman writes about the 1866 election in Georgia, where 33 Black lawmakers won state offices only to be expelled by the white-dominated legislature. In Georgia today, another generation of Black lawmakers is battling that familiar enemy. Rebecca Leber warns in “Gaslit” that the fossil fuel industry has worked hard to get Americans to love their gas stoves. Desperate to reopen and loaded with stimulus cash, schools are spending millions on high-tech air purifiers, but Madison Pauly in “Caution to the Wind” says they may not be safe. And Tim Murphy profiles Kyrsten Sinema, the former Green Party rabble-rouser, in “Shape Shifter” as she rises to become a Senate power broker. It’s a political fairy tale, or nightmare.
