Two years ago, Nikole Hannah-Jones launched “The 1619 Project,” a collection of New York Times Magazine articles, photography and podcasts. That project became a launching point to talk about Black people’s roles in shaping the United States. Hannah-Jones has been praised and vilified for her work ever since.
Today, we share highlights from a L.A. Times Book Club chat between Hannah-Jones and L.A. Times executive editor Kevin Merida. They talked about how Black people can be patriotic despite centuries of mistreatment … and about using mountains of research to get back at haters.

This week spotlights Loretta Lynn’s 1975 crossover hit, “The Pill,” one of the most controversial country singles of all time. To discuss Loretta, birth control, and the normalizing of sexual health education, Danny and Tyler are joined by the brilliant and hilarious Alex Kumin (@alexkumin, Comedy Central, Comedians You Should Know).
Everyone from Owen Bradley to Reba McEntire to Jack White says that Loretta Lynn is one of the smartest country songwriters of all time, and they’d all agree she’s a fearless badass too. According to Tyler Mahan Coe, Loretta Lynn had more songs banned from radio than all male country artists in the 20th century combined. What gets a female vocalist banned from country music radio? What makes a woman "radical" within a male-dominated industry? Is wanting birth control even controversial? Give this week’s episode a listen, where we answer those questions.

Are we heading into an era of unending low-level conflict, of foreign interference and buying of influence? In The Weaponisation of Everything, the security expert Mark Galeotti argues that traditional warfare is on the wane, replaced by hybrid wars, disinformation, espionage and subversion. He tells Adam Rutherford that this 21st century way of war often goes unnoticed and can be dangerously destabilising, but it also offers opportunities for those who are able to take full advantage of this new armoury.
The political philosopher Cécile Fabre explores the ethics of espionage and counterintelligence. In Spying Through a Glass Darkly she looks to answer a fundamental question: when is spying justified? In the context of war and foreign policy what actions are morally justified, and when? Fabre brings together philosophical arguments and historical examples to study the moral justification of state blackmail, mass surveillance, treason and bribery.
How far are the subversive techniques discussed uniquely human? It’s a question the primatologist Kirsty Graham considers as she studies the way bonobos and chimpanzees communicate in the field. Her research has shown that both groups share not only the physical form of the gestures but many of the same meanings.

What do a goat, Babe Ruth, a witch doctor, the city of Pottsville, Pennsylvania, and a Japanese statue of Colonel Sanders all have in common?
They are all supposedly responsible for curses placed upon sports teams that prevented them from winning for years, sometimes even centuries.
While such curses might be difficult or impossible to prove, they certainly are real for the fans who think they are affected by them.
Learn more about some of the greatest sports curses in the world and how they supposedly started, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Are celebrities “disruptors” who revitalize the development field, or are they just charismatic ambassadors for big business? In Batman Saves the Congo: How Celebrities Disrupt the Politics of Development (University of Minnesota Press, 2021) the authors argue that celebrities play both roles, and that understanding why and how yields insight into the realities of neoliberal development. As elite political participants, celebrities shape development practices through strategic partnerships that are both an innovative way to raise awareness and funding for neglected causes and a troubling trend of unaccountable elite leadership in North-South relations. The authors use actor Ben Affleck’s Eastern Congo Initiative to illustrate this dynamic, arguing that his charisma and reach helped bring new approaches to bear on the region’s development.
