"Award-winning #photographer #BillAron, known as the “Dean” of #American #Jewish #photographers, has documented #Jewishlife in the #UnitedStates and around the world for more than 50 years.

Some of his #photographs appeared in the earliest issues of #Moment. Join #Aron for a conversation about his latest endeavor, The World in Front of Me: A Bill Aron Retrospective and accompanying #podcast, co-curated with the American Jewish #Historical Society.

The retrospective showcases his work from the #AmericanSouth, #LosAngeles and #NewYork to the #SovietUnion, #Cuba and #Jerusalem. Aron reflects on how documenting Jewish life became his life’s work, how he chose the communities he #photographed, how he got to know his subjects, and over the years what changes he has witnessed in the Jewish world through the lens of his #camera.

In conversation with Moment #Arts and Articles Editor #DianeBolz. Co-sponsored by #AJHS."

Tennessee Williams’ Home in Columbus, Mississippi

Tennessee Williams’ Home

We just discovered @msfreepress is in the fediverse! Here’s a great piece from Jermany Gray about the game-changing effect of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis, or PrEP, a pill that if taken daily, can decrease the chances of getting HIV from sex by up to 99%. “I started my journey with PrEP in 2021, and I have now been on it for more than three years. This decision has undoubtedly shielded me from the risks faced as a Black gay man from the South,” he writes. “On this National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, Feb. 7, 2025, I urge more people to educate themselves about PrEP and to take control of their sexual health.”

"A hidden force supercharged this Alabama flood -- and threatens the Anerican South"

Spoiler: the "hidden force" is climate change and the resulting sea-level rise.

It's sad that the WaPo needs to use click-bait headlines to get people to read about the greatest crisis humanity has ever faced. I hope it works.

REVIEW: Kym Register + Meltdown Rodeo employ Southern rock to interrogate the South's legacy of white supremacy -- and to champion its resiliency. With heavy grooves and radical politics, Register and Meltdown Rodeo resist tired stereotypes and forge a path to solidarity.

27-Are there human rights issues in your world? If so, does your MC ever address them? MC1 doesn't care about anyone's problems outside of his own. He is convinced the world is out to get him. MC2 cares, and tries to help one person, but mostly she's trying to keep her children safe.
