Hacker leak shows Zohran Mamdani once checked “Asian” and “African-American” on college app—supporters say it’s a non-issue

Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for New York City mayor, recently made headlines for once marking ‘South Asian’ and ‘African American’ on an application. While applying to Columbia University as a high school senior in 2009, Mamdani completed a portion of the application by checking boxes to self-identify as both South Asian and African American. “Most college applications don’t have a box for Indian-Ugandans, so I checked multiple boxes trying to capture the fullness of my background,” said Mamdani in […]

As millions of Americans celebrate Juneteenth, the federal holiday commemorating the end of slavery in the U.S. and the freedom of Americans of African descent, the politics of the holiday today can probably be best understood by what’s happening or not happening at the White House. While President Donald Trump issued presidential statements honoring Juneteenth in his first term, it is unclear whether he will do the same this year. This year marks 160 years since Union Maj. Gen.

Should Black communities police themselves? New documentary shows violence interrupters being called instead of cops

When four gunshots rang out one summer in Brownsville, a group of people ran toward the sound to prevent any bloodshed — but they weren’t police officers. This group, known as violence interrupters, is part of an experiment designed to place community members on the front lines, deescalating situations that law enforcement would typically respond to first. They are the focus of “Policing Our Own,” a forthcoming documentary by screenwriter and filmmaker Dante DeBlasio. DeBlasio, 26, says he wanted to […]

Trump questioning Harris’ race shows ignorance of code-switching

Kamala Harris has range. She can grill nominees for the Supreme Court or meet with foreign dignitaries, then pivot to hosting a Diwali celebration or dancing enthusiastically alongside an HBCU-styled marching band.
