The consistent flow of emails over the past week from all my favorite small literary presses and arts orgs about their loss of NEA funding has been truly depressing. @deepvellum.bsky.social @miznaarabart.bsky.social and @catranslation.bsky.social to name a few

THE BOOK OF SANA'A (Ed. Laura @kasinof.bsky.social )
These stories demonstrate the ways that war has touched the lives of ordinary Yemenis. Each character learns to find redemption in their own ingenuity as well as in a deep-rooted appreciation this inspiring city.

Israeli forces shot and killed 14-year-old Omar Mohammed Rabea, a Palestinian-American, in the occupied West Bank near the town of Turmus Aya, northeast of Ramallah.
Omar was with two other Palestinian boys — both U.S. citizens — when Israeli forces opened fire. Soldiers wounded both boys.
