A probing and illuminating analysis of current state of American politics, focusing on Donald Trump's lie about election fraud, by the White House Correspondent for the Associated Press Donald Trump first tried it out in 2016, at an August rally in Ohio. He said that perhaps he wouldn't accept the election results in his race against Hillary Clinton, that the election was "rigged." He then mentioned it at more rallies and even at one of the fall debates. He didn't have to challenge the result that year, but the stage was set. When he lost in 2020, he started the lie back up again and to devastating results: an insurrection at the Capitol in January 2021. In the more than five tumultuous, paradigm-shifting years of Donald Trump's presidency and beyond, his near-constant lying has become a fixture of political life. It is inextricably linked with how his party behaves, how the Democrats respond to it, and how he remains relevant, even after a decisive loss in 2020. Jonathan Lemire brings

From Gates Scholar and First Lady of Stockton, CA, Anna Malaika Tubbs, comes The Three Mothers, the first book to celebrate the three great women who raised and shaped America's most pivotal heroes: MLK, Malcolm X, and James Baldwin. Much has been written about the Berdis Baldwin's son James, about Alberta King's son Martin, and Louise Little's son Malcolm. But virtually nothing has been said about the extraordinary women who raised them, who themselves were all born within six years of each other, all contending with the very specific prejudices faced by Black women during Jim Crow. Berdis, Alberta, and Louise all possessed an unrelenting belief in education--from Louise asking her children to read to her from the dictionary, to Berdis's faith and encouragement in her son's preternaturally gifted writing, to Alberta's unwavering dedication to Martin's higher education. These women used their strength and motherhood to push their sons toward greatness, all with a conviction that all hu
