Our new issue is slightly delayed, but only for the best of reasons. We’re giving our site a swanky new backend and finalizing formatting on the print edition, which ran well over 100 pages. Don’t worry, it’s at the same cover price, still counts as a single issue, and we’re still in full-color with the ridiculously extravagant paper stock that’s become our calling card.

This time around our designer Remeike Forbes was joined by new art editor Erin Schell and a host of other commissioned artists. We also have quite a few new writers. The main features include a special section “Palestine and the Left” and particularly strong essays from Nicole Aschoff, Megan Erickson, and Sarah Jaffe. Our assistant editors Alyssa Battistoni and Shawn Gude also came through with some stellar material.

In addition to being our longest, I think it’s our strongest and most consistent issue yet. A full preview is below. All credit to the authors and especially Max Ajl and Megan Erickson who served as issue editors this time around.
