The New Yorker magazine appeared on the newstands for the first time 100 years ago this past week. The first issue was dated February 21, 1925. I won’t go into a whole history here (even if I were capable!), but it has been such an influential publication in its lifetime, I wanted to honor the milestone birthday. Plus, it has been my professional “home” for 46 years, and I love the magazine.

President Obama gave a great talk yesterday while campaigning for Harris, and in it, he talked about what real strength is. It’s not about putting people down. It’s not belittling others. He directed a lot of his comments to men, and in particuar Black men. Let’s hope he does more campaigning in the next three weeks. The Atlantic Magazine endorsed Harris yesterday. They have not endorsed many candidates over the history of the publication.
