NEXT: Visions Toward a Less-Divided America

As it faces waves of climate emergencies and pandemic shutdowns, outrages and protests, America sometimes feels like it’s coming apart. The writers in this collection of essays tell a different, more hopeful story: of a country learning not to turn its back to the changeable and restless forces of history.

Born from the question of where does America go from here--post-pandemic, post-Trump--this collection of essays wrestles in personal, profound ways with the hope that our country can rediscover its better self.
