What will the first day of school look like? Though New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has announced schools will reopen in the fall, the battle has been messy and bungled, leaving many of the people charged with preparing for it concerned and angry. “Teachers feel they are being asked to jeopardize their very lives to provide an inferior educational experience so that other adults can go off to work,” writes Keith Gessen. “School administrators and staff feel they are being asked to plan the impossible with too little time and too little money. Working parents, especially mothers, find themselves shunted back into the home, sitting alongside their children for hours as they Zoom in to their classes. And looming over all the confusion and divisiveness is a touchy, querulous, voluble mayor who cannot seem to make up his mind.”

via @nymag: On Wednesday the European Union will launch an operation to seize, stop, and divert traffickers' boats. The program is called "Operation Sophia," named for a baby girl born to a Somali woman who was rescued by a German ship off the coast of Libya in August. Up until now, the EU has focused mostly on surveilling the smugglers. The ultimate goal is to cut off the smugglers' routes and thus dissuade people from making the Mediterranean crossing in the first place.
