Drawing on data from the @nytimes API, I analyzed all national & local coverage since 2000—420,000 articles— to see which topics in each state get covered out of proportion to the rest of the country. A portrait of how the paper of record sees America. To explore 50-state results in full, visit my “Below The Fold” dashboard, link in bio.

In 2017 after I left Everytown, I convinced @columbiapublichealth they should let me teach a course on gun violence prevention. Tonight, I wrapped the eighth cohort.

Over time, it’s become a venue for hundreds of students to converse with some of the finest practitioners and scientists working on this issue.

This year, we heard from Eric Cumberbatch at @policingequity, @nycendgbv Commissioner Saloni Sethi, former U.S. Senator Joe Manchin, concealed firearm instructor Lance Dashefsky, architect of NY’s statewide threat assessment teams Benjamin Voce-Gardner, the violence interrupters at @save.harlem, head of the once and future White House gun violence office Rob Wilcox, Denver Police Department’s Sgt. Troy Bisgard, Eric Tirschwell of Everytown Law, our own departmental chair Charles Branas...and nothing brings me greater pleasure than learning from my former student Emma Cornell about the great suicide prevention work she is doing at @northwellhealth.

Like the parable of the blind men who each have a grip on a different part of the elephant, each guest spoke with unparalleled expertise about their small part of the problem — and as the semester unspooled, students began to assemble a broader vision of the whole. They brought sharp questions and real stakes to every session. As ever, I learned as much from them as I taught.

In an era when the scientific enterprise and violence prevention are again on their heels, it is invigorating to be reminded just how thoughtful and effective are the people working to stop it — and how numerous they have become.

It’s always bittersweet to bring the class to a close, but I’m already thinking about teaching the ninth cohort. Who would *you* want in the room next year?

Who makes history – and who decides?

I’ve been taking a big-data approach to the entirety of New York Times coverage going back to 2000 –more than 2.2 million articles – and found some fascinating things looking at obituaries.

Since 2000 the paper has published more than 29,000 obits. For every woman memorialized, the paper published two for men.

During that time, just 51 obits ran past 4,000 words: presidents, Popes, kings, singular cultural figures. Of them, just five were women, and fewer than a fifth were people of color.

There’s a lot more to explore through the “Below the Fold” dashboard itself — link in bio.

Layers upon layers in Tunisia: ruined civilizations come and gone. Skeletons of dreams yet to be.

Humans carve such a consequential arc — yet the tangent we each follow is so brief and shallow, one scarcely glimpses our final direction.

I built a dashboard to explore the last 25+ years of @nytimes coverage: 1.5 billion words, 2.2 million articles. The most dominant subject? Trump. But there’s untold insights when you look at the world’s preeminent news organization not as daily stories but as patterns of attention, ebbing and flowing.

Explore the dashboard at the link in my bio. And share this with a Times subscriber in your life - it’s a whole new way of thinking about the news.

I just reported a story for @nytimes about a policy change quietly sweeping the country and improving health care for the most vulnerable Americans: people leaving jails and prisons. With incredible, empathetic photography by @brianlfrank. Link in bio!

History is happening, with vast implications for health, public safety, and politics. And we need to understand it. Sign up for the great midday webinar I’m moderating at Columbia next week, registration link in bio.

For nearly 30 years, one of the guardians of our New Mexico community (and a giant of feminist art and history and activism) Lucy Lippard has written and edited thesemi-monthly“El Puente de Galisteo” — a practice of place-keeping as much as journalism.

Today was my first byline in the Valentine’s Day edition, for the recurring feature “How We Met.”

Thanks for the assignment @alxfinla
