From the New York Times, this is The Interview. I'm David Marchese. Maybe it sounds corny, but in my own little way, I really do try to make the world a better place. I think about the ethics of what I eat. I donate to charity.

I give time and energy to helping those less fortunate in my community. And according to Peter Singer, those efforts pretty much add up to bupkis. Singer is arguably the world's most influential living philosopher.

From The New York Times, I'm Sabrina Tavernisi, and this is The Daily. For decades, Black Americans formed the backbone of the Democratic Party, voting by overwhelming margins for Democratic candidates.

00:00:17 Speaker_06
And while a majority of Black voters are expected to enthusiastically cast their ballots for Kamala Harris, polls suggest that support for her might be softening, particularly among Black men.

00:00:30 Speaker_06
The stakes of that dynamic are highest in the swing state of Georgia, where in 2020, Black voters helped flip the state blue for the first time in decades, and where this time, Harris will need strong Black turnout to win the state, and with it, potentially, the presidency.

Hi, my name's Willie Staley, and I'm a story editor for The New York Times Magazine. This week's Sunday Read is an article I wrote for the magazine that originated out of a hunch, one I had about television.

00:00:18 Speaker_01
That TV shows these days are generally bad, or they're not as good as they used to be, at least to me. That there's been this noticeable degradation in quality. I'd bring this up at our magazine's ideas meetings.

00:00:35 Speaker_01
Maybe I sounded a little like a crank, but it was a fixation of mine that was bothering me for years. There'd be these shows that everyone loved and everyone wrote about, and I'd watch them just mystified. And I liked TV.

Summary

Episode 2 of the "1619" podcast, hosted by Nikole Hannah-Jones, delves into how slavery transformed America into an economic powerhouse, centered around cotton production. The narrative interweaves personal family histories with the brutal realities of slavery as the backbone of this growth. The introduction of the cotton gin significantly increased the need for enslaved labor, resulting in a complex plantation management structure akin to modern corporations, driven by violence and market demands. The episode also discusses the financial mechanisms exploiting enslaved individuals, asserting that the combined value of enslaved workers eclipsed that of contemporary railroads and factories, linking these historical practices to ongoing patterns in American capitalism.

Every year our family would go on family vacations and we would go on family reunions, but we would never go to the place of my dad's birth. It wasn't a place that he really wanted to take us to or a place that he wanted to return.

quiet out here, the seagulls. The sun is warm but it's not too humid. It's actually kind of a great day for fishing. That's why it sticks. What does it smell like? Smells like dead fish. Smells like the water. What is going through your head right now?

I don't know. Thinking about what they went through. I don't know. I just wonder a lot what it was like. They say our people were born on the water. When it occurred, no one can say for certain.
