In 2017 I wrote a story for California Sunday about Los Jornaleros del Norte NDLON, which we then brought to life on stage for Pop-Up Magazine. I am thrilled it will take on a new life on 9/23 in a short film featuring the band + their story delivered by La Marisoul popupmagazine.com/heritage/

I share this story b/c 1) it's well written & fascinating but 2) it's a reminder that, for all the headlines about Trump attacking our elections & possible vote-by-mail issues, there are 100,000s of people working day and night to protect the election and ensure your vote counts.

Last fall, Trump pardoned Army Lt. Clint Lorance, who was serving a 20-year sentence for ordering the murder of two Afghan civilians. To Lorance’s defenders, the act was long overdue. To the men who served under him, it was a gross miscarriage of justice.clsndy.co/3i1F9s7

“I think he knows he made a mistake,” former Captain Patrick Swanson says. “I think he gave an order to shoot absent positive identification. I think it’s as simple as that.” Nathaniel Penn on the case of Clint Lorance, the army lieutenant pardoned by Trump. clsndy.co/3i1F9s7

Seven years after his conviction, nearly one year after the pardon, the case Army Lt. Clint Lorance — and the president’s decision to pardon him — continue to divide people sharply. clsndy.co/3i1F9s7

Tune in October 12-16 for a new issue from Pop-Up Magazine!

We created The California Sunday Magazine to tell intimate stories about people’s lives that explore and explain important issues. Nadja Drost’s feature, and the work of editor @kitrachlis, represents the very best of that tradition. Read the story → clsndy.co/3bWxE3h

I am at a loss for words. My incredible editor @kitrachlis will have difficulty believing this. When I find them, I have many people to thank, including the mighty teams at California Sunday + Pulitzer Center, + the asylum-seekers who bravely shared their journey and lives with me.
