We’re Leveling Up

The Editors

We’re ramping up our coverage on a host of important issues. Welcome new columnists Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor and Liza Featherstone.

The world is burning, hope is scarce, but we have new columnists at least.


Jacobin has added five new writers, including Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor and Liza Featherstone, as well as Nicole Aschoff (political economy and technology), Dawn Foster (London-based), and Luke Savage (Toronto-based). They join a team that includes Meagan Day and Branko Marcetic.

“The Left is at a critical moment, larger than in decades but still needing big ideas to grow and win,” said Jason Farbman, Jacobin’s associate publisher. “Jacobin has always contributed to the discussions and debates that shape this reemerging Left. We’re now in a better position than ever to contribute. Keeanga’s interventions have consistently reached a wide audience, beyond the growing — but still small — US left. We’re also extremely lucky to have Liza Featherstone on board. Liza brings years of journalistic experience and writes brilliantly on a really wide range of topics, from gender and sexuality to labor, education, and climate change.”

Jacobin is one of the most important publications on the US Left,” said Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor. “I’m happy to be able to regularly engage with its readership on the important challenges and debates facing our struggles today.”
