Remembering Susan Sontag
Kurt Andersen remembers the awe and pleasure he felt interviewing the great essayist and critic Susan Sontag in early 2003, during the build-up to the Iraq war. She died this week at the age of 71.
Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
