Exile


When a young Eva Kollisch arrives as a refugee in New York in 1940, she finds a community among socialists who share her values and idealism. She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self. In addition to Eva Kollisch’s memoirs Girl in Movement (2000) and The Ground Under My Feet (2014), LBI’s collections include an oral history interview with Eva conducted in 2014 and the papers of Eva’s mother, poet Margarete Kolllisch, which document Eva’s childhood experience on the Kindertransport.

Disappointment is the uninvited guest at the table of life. It sits heavy in our hearts, clutches our dreams, and whispers doubts that gnaw at the edges of hope. Yet, disappointment is not a dead end; it’s a waypoint, a necessary stop on the task of human growth. To be disappointed is to be alive, to care deeply about outcomes, to have risked enough to feel the sting of falling short. And while the pangs of disappointment may seem like the final word, they are often just the prelude to resilience.

×The concept of social safety nets affects every single one of us, whether we realize it or not. These programs and policies—Medicare, Medicaid, unemployment insurance, food assistance—represent more than bureaucratic systems. They embody a fundamental question about who we are as a society. I want to make my position clear: these safety nets aren't optional luxuries—they're essential infrastructure for a functioning, humane society. Let me take you on a think through history, across cultures, and into possible futures to explain why.…
How do we punish those who break the rules? Over the past thousand years, we’ve moved from brutal public executions and torture to sophisticated legal codes and debates over rehabilitation. And if we take a look at where we’re heading in the next millennium, the future of justice could be something completely beyond our imagination.…

Regret, in its multifaceted complexity, is an embedded facet of the human condition—a reflective, often painful acknowledgement of choices that have led us astray from our idealized paths. It emerges from the interplay of memory, expectation, and self-assessment, functioning as both a mirror and a guide. The emotion of regret is not simply a byproduct of decision-making but a cognitive mechanism designed to heighten our awareness of moral and practical missteps, thereby enriching our capacity for future growth.…

The late nineteenth century marked a pivotal shift in how “the uncanny” was understood in art and literature, though the roots of eerie resemblance and disquieting near-human forms reach back further. By the 1870s, a transitional period was well underway in Europe, shaped by industrialization and the popularization of automata exhibitions. The public fascination with life-sized clockwork dolls that blinked their eyes or played musical instruments set the stage for the eerie feeling that occurs when something appears human but clearly lacks a human essence. Even before Sigmund Freud offered his famous essay “Das Unheimliche” in 1919, there were tantalizing experiments and anxieties circulating among intellectuals and the general populace. The German psychologist Ernst Jentsch, writing in 1906, introduced the word “uncanny” (in German, “unheimlich”) to discuss that peculiar shiver one feels when faced with an automaton or a wax figure that seems too close to life. His ideas laid much of the groundwork for Freud’s subsequent interpretation.…
The most curious unrealized secret of the known world is that humanity’s survival hinges not on technological advancement or resource extraction but on our collective ability to transcend the illusion of separateness. We exist in a hyperconnected biophysical system where every action cascades through ecological, social, and economic networks, yet we behave as if individual or national interests can be pursued in isolation.…

Throughout history and into our contemporary world, the invocation of divinity in everyday life—particularly in non-religious arenas such as sports and politics—highlights the deeply rooted cultural inclination to attribute human successes or failures to supernatural favor. When a professional athlete declares that a victory occurred because “God was on our side,” it potentially diminishes both the skill and the diligence that contributed to the win.…

Suspension of disbelief, as it is often understood today, traces its formal articulation to the English poet and philosopher Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who coined the phrase “willing suspension of disbelief” in 1817 in his critical work “Biographia Literaria.” Coleridge proposed that readers and audiences consciously set aside the knowledge that what they are witnessing is artificial in order to be moved, entertained, or enlightened by the piece of art before them.…

In the mid-to-late 18th century, as portrait painters struggled to preserve their art form against the sudden intrusion of photographic technology, one can imagine the rumblings across the parlors, salons, and academies of Europe and America. Painters, who had long been accustomed to controlling the manner, mood, and meaning of a subject’s likeness through the deliberate strokes of their brushes, saw photography as not just a mechanical rival, but a dull and unfeeling intruder onto a sacred terrain they had cultivated for centuries.…

Passive social murder is the quiet, systemic practice of allowing people to die through inaction and neglect. This idea traces back to the nineteenth century, to minds like Friedrich Engels, who accused the capitalist systems of his era of knowing full well that certain conditions would lead the poor to early graves. It is the kind of death that does not come from a gunshot, but from the heavy, silent weight of a society that structures itself so that some lives are nurtured, while others are left to waste away.…

A hitherto unacknowledged connection that threads through the entirety of philosophical writing—across centuries, cultures, and varying schools of thought—is humanity’s unending effort to sublimate existential terror into a coherent narrative that makes mortal life intelligible, permissible, and meaningful. From the careful syllogisms of medieval Scholastics to the bold manifestos of twentieth-century existentialists, philosophers have not merely flirted with the interplay of reason, emotion, and metaphysical longing; they have continually sought to transfigure our instinctive dread of finitude and futility into something purposeful and noble. The binding force here is not merely the quest for truth or the application of logic, but a more primal task: to shelter the trembling human psyche from the chaos of existence through the scaffolding of a grand conceptual edifice. In other words, all philosophical writing can be seen, at its core, as an evolving strategy for constructing spiritual and intellectual refuges against the terror of nonbeing.…

Medical AI is not just a technological leap; it’s a cultural shift. When machines analyze our health, we enter a world where the expertise of algorithms supplements—and sometimes challenges—the wisdom of clinicians. This isn’t about replacing the human touch but redefining it. The real story of Medical AI is how it pushes us to rethink the relationship between technology, health, and humanity.…

The case of Amanda Knox is a modern legal and cultural Rorschach test—sprawling, messy, and deeply personal for anyone who dares to examine it. At its core, it is a story of a young woman, a brutal murder, and an Italian justice system unprepared for the scrutiny and chaos that would follow. Knox's story is not just about guilt or innocence; it’s about how we, as humans, construct narratives in the absence of clear facts, how media amplifies those narratives, and how justice can falter under pressure. To unpack it fully, we must walk through the tragedy, the trials, and the aftermath.…

In a quaint little home nestled among the cobbled streets of an English village, two British Shorthair kittens, Lotty and Percy, spent their days exploring every nook and cranny. Lotty, a plump and cheerful blue kitten, followed his sister Percy wherever she went, his little paws thumping softly on the floorboards. Percy, a lilac-colored marvel, was the clever one—quick as a flash, with a mind as sharp as her tiny claws.…

Its elimination would not merely be a bureaucratic adjustment; it would trigger scary and far-reaching consequences across the educational spectrum.…
