OH, AND, WELL, YOU KNOW - THE BACK PAGE BY LAURA JAYE CRAMER.
RBG died.
And that hurts and we sort of spun and fretted and tried to keep our heads above the water of our anxieties. We are a weekly journal and as of yet we hadn’t really tapped into the concept that our little journal can adapt with current events, that we can respond to very recent news. We saw Anna Rotty’s piece RGB out in the digital world and we sat staring at the stark representation of Ginsburg’s iconic apparel and well, we pushed a few things around and set the art work as our twenty-second cover. It makes our hearts lurch every time we see it. And we’ve seen it a lot.
The rest of the issue is equally as good.
You’ll have to grab a copy to see just how good that is.
