The next time you see a price, know that it may not reflect what the item is worth—but what the algorithm believes *you* are worth.

When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

Honestly, it's a form of copaganda for the media to present police corruption and violence, which happens everywhere, as unusual and shocking.
The details change, the level of violence and corruption changes, but it's always there.
