Staff Picks: "Written in the shadow of the illegal invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan, Hope in the Dark has been providing exactly that for nearly two decades. It's a deeply personal, extraordinarily wide ranging essay on why working together for change matters, often in ways we can't foresee or imagine. If you need a pick me up, a confidante, a reminder that what you do counts: read this now."
