This unpaywalled edition of On the Pulse is inspired by Cryn Johannsen, who does a BiWeekly Best Reads roundup, and a recent note by Frederic Poag, in which he tagged a bunch of genuine, smart Substackers who write with authenticity and courage.
All of the articles included are by Substackers whose perspectives on issues of migration and international concern I have come to appreciate and rely upon. Some are a little older than the past week, but still very relevant; they also don’t necessarily fit cleanly under our typical categories. Disfruta! (For new subscribers, our regular On the Pulse format will be back the week of 20 July, after our birthdays).
