🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨The most exciting new thing in journalism is here 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

A strong essay which, among other things, takes aim at the cliché of Lebanese "resilience" so often invoked by outsiders.

What a thrill to see @equatormag.bsky.social come to life. So many of my favorite people created this essential new magazine, and I can't wait to see where they take it. www.equator.org

Vengo a recomendar esta revista, y este artículo en particular, que a mí me golpeó de todas las formas posibles como "experta en desarrollo sostenible" en recuperación. Nadie se salva solo.

A strong first issue for the new @equatormag.bsky.social. Soyonbo Borjgin on a journalist’s life at 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘳 𝘔𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘢 𝘓𝘪𝘧𝘦 𝘞𝘦𝘦𝘬𝘭𝘺 Here’s the opening paragraph and it just pretty much keeps going like this www.equator.org/articles/the...

"It was not liberalism that bestowed upon America a utopian aura; it was the country’s sheer power, the sense of boundless strength it projected after its geopolitical win in the early 1990s." Rahmane Idrissa for @equatormag.bsky.social www.equator.org/articles/sta...

brilliant, gorgeous poems by aria aber in brilliant, gorgeous @equatormag.bsky.social www.equator.org/articles/two...

All the pieces in the new @equatormag.bsky.social are amazing, but Lina Mounzer's examination of the "tyranny of hope" and the complacency with which Western media looks at the world struck a chord. www.equator.org/articles/the...

Remarkable piece. “Never in history has so much of the Jewish leadership been stained with this much guilt – a guilt that can never be washed out.”

"There was a line about a red-haired girl in Jaffa and eating plums, and silverware – remember?" Aria Aber, beautifully, in the @equatormag.bsky.social www.equator.org/articles/two...

"My dreams, once experienced in color, have turned grey." Sondos Sabra's dispatch from the crime scene in the @equatormag.bsky.social www.equator.org/articles/two...

"When the Soviet Union disintegrated, Bout reinvented himself as an arms dealer, selling weapons to Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan and running guns for rebel groups in Africa. Eventually, he bought a mansion on the water in the United Arab Emirates." @equatormag.bsky.social www.equator.org/articles/kin...

👇🏽👇🏽 Always read anything @warghetti.bsky.social writes!

When the apocalypse never comes. From great new mag @equatormag.bsky.social

"The Weekly printed the piece, and it launched my career – which came to an end five years later, in 2020, when the government abruptly shuttered the magazine." —Soyonbo Borjgin for the first issue of @equatormag.bsky.social

this @equatormag.bsky.social piece is excellent www.equator.org/articles/mur...

So honored to join @equatormag.bsky.social , born as a response to the horror in Palestine and inspired by a need to bring back meaning and hope amid today’s nihilism. 💪 I open with a personal piece about my last year in politics. Hope you’ll find it worth reading. www.equator.org/articles/far...

Powerful editorial statement from the soon-to-be-launched @equatormag.bsky.social www.equator.org

👏

So excited about the upcoming release of Equator! "We began to imagine a new cultural venture, one that rejects the nihilistic idea that the powerful do what they please, and success is the only measure of moral virtue."

"Equator is founded on our conviction that the storied titles of the Anglophone West cannot be internally reformed, nor redeemed by their periodic U-turns and belated mea culpas. The time has come to create something new." Today we publish Equator's editorial declaration. Join us: www.equator.org
