Good morning. It seems like ages ago that Trump spewed hateful and false narratives about Haitian immigrants during his debate with Kamala Harris, but the lies he spread had a disastrous impact, exacerbating deep-seated bias against immigrants and Haitians in particular in the United States. Today’s must-read piece is an exchange between Haitian-American artists Rejin Leys and Vladimir Cybil Charlier, who counter Trump and JD Vance’s racist vitriol and disinformation through their family histories, personal experiences, and artistic practices. In the news, Israeli officials block the screening of a film about the forced depopulation of a Palestinian city and New York art advisor Lisa Schiff pleads guilty to one count of wire fraud. She could face a prison sentence of up to 20 years. Staff Reporter Maya Pontone has both those stories. There’s much more, including the exciting excavation of Armenia’s oldest known church and a ban on liquids at UK’s National Gallery in the wake of protests. — Valentina Di Liscia, News Editor | |
