Finding Hope At this moment when more of us are looking online for crucial human connections, TIME is convening the world’s most influential people through TIME 100 Talks, a new series of virtual conversations and experiences. The first installment, “Finding Hope,” streamed on April 23, following the release of a special issue on the same topic. Doctors, politicians and artists at the forefront of health and social-justice policymaking discussed how to address the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. As TIME editor-in-chief and CEO Edward Felsenthal said in his opening remarks, the mission of the TIME 100 summits—“looking for ways to encourage action”—is more important than ever, “to help guide all of us toward a better future.” Find more insights and highlights, as well as updates on upcoming talks, at…

IN NORMAL TIMES, ANNE BONNEY WOULD NOT consider herself an ideal pet owner. The 46-year-old professional speaker usually spends lots of time on the road. But many of Bonney’s upcoming events have been canceled or moved online amid the COVID-19 pandemic, which left her stuck at home in Traverse City, Mich. So when a friend who runs a rabbit-rescue center reached out about a fostering opportunity, she leaped at the chance. Now she’s taking care of Pepper, whom she calls a “spunky little thing.” “I love animals and can’t normally have them,” says Bonney, who’s allergic to cats and dogs. Pepper gives Bonney something to look forward to between endless online meetings, not to mention a distraction from world events. “I can go in and sit with her. She…

By Sarah Parcak On April 8, we received an email from our son’s teacher about the start of online schooling. We wrote back that same day saying that for the sake of our mental health—mine, my husband’s, our child’s—he was done with first grade. “You’re a wonderful, caring, compassionate teacher,” we told her, “and our son was lucky to have you for as long as he did.” Like other parents with the ability to work from home, my husband and I recently found ourselves in an untenable position: If you have a full-time job, how exactly are you supposed to also take care of your children now that schools are closed, much less facilitate their remote learning? My husband and I are professors at the University of Alabama at Birmingham,…

DURING A QUARANTINE OUTING TO OUR LOCAL PARK THIS week, my toddler son ran around kicking his big red ball. I watched him chase after it and then collect treasures to share with his Elmo doll sitting in the stroller. And I yearned for him to have a playmate. Not just any playmate—a sibling. Many of my friends told me they felt a switch flip when their kids hit 15 months and all of a sudden they felt ready to do it all again. For me, 15 months came and went with no great change. So did 18 and 20. For a brief moment, my husband and I thought we were happy having our one wonderful child. But in the early months of 2020, as my son’s second birthday…

IN MID-MARCH, THE POP-MUSIC WORLD WENT into collective retreat. Tentpole festivals were postponed; stadium tours were scrapped. Major artists, such as Lady Gaga and Sam Smith, shelved their albums rather than run the risk of appearing insensitive in an era of isolation and illness. But one artist did the opposite, choosing to rush out an album before its scheduled release: the 24-year-old British pop singer-songwriter Dua Lipa. “I was thinking of moving the album—putting it out at a later time when things weren’t feeling so heavy,” she says. “But when I was playing devil’s advocate with myself, I kept going back to the fact that I made this record to get away from any anxieties and pressures of making a second record—to just have fun and dance.” The gambit…

NOTED U.S. virus deaths pass Vietnam War’s In less than four months THE METAPHORS SUMMONED AGAINST THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC are almost unfailingly military. Health workers toil on the front line. The virus is the enemy, battled against. And then there’s the body count. On April 28, the number of people killed by the novel coronavirus inside the U.S. reached 58,365. The figure was provided by Johns Hopkins University, where the Center for Systems Science and Engineering compiles what experts regard as the closest thing to an “official” count of deaths from COVID-19. Given certain realities—including shortfalls in testing, and deaths that occur at home—the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention acknowledged the same day that the actual number is significantly higher. Still, the figure carried weight, surpassing as it…

IN NORMAL TIMES, MARY KAY HENRY, THE president of the second largest union in the U.S., flies around the country meeting with workers, politicians and policymakers, arguing that the nearly 2 million Americans she represents deserve more. Now, in an age of pandemic, as her members—the janitors and food-service employees and airport and home-care workers of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU)—are asked to put their lives on the line by going in to work, Henry is fighting for them from a downstairs apartment in San Francisco. On a recent Wednesday, Henry, 62, sat on a chair padded with a cushion in front of a poster board featuring the SEIU logo, wearing her signature purple glasses and a deep purple blazer (purple is the color of the SEIU), encouraging fast-food…

WHICH MAJOR country now faces the world’s worst political mess? Which head of state finds himself in deepest trouble? There’s a good case to be made for Brazil and its President. It’s easy to think of Jair Bolsonaro as just another of the world’s antiestablishment firebrands now grappling with the realities of governing, but he is more colorful and combative than most. His taste for a fight helped distinguish him within a large field of candidates during his country’s 2018 presidential election, but now he finds himself forced into a corner. Bolsonaro’s first political problem is that he has few reliable allies in Brazil’s Congress. He leads a party new to power that often lacks a coherent agenda, and as a self-described corruption fighter, he has refused to make…

THROUGHOUT MY FOUR DECADES IN THE NAVY, I SAILED ON my fair share of deployments, in both peace and war. Most were at least six months long, and during most of my time at sea, there was no reliable communication from the ship to my home—just scratchy HF transmissions over radio systems using military protocols to conduct the conversation, e.g., “I love you, over.” Some of my deployments were relatively benign “show the flag” cruises with a variety of liberty ports along the way. Others were combat missions throughout the ongoing war on terrorism in the Middle East and Afghanistan. During all of those deployments, my wife and our two daughters on the home front worried about and waited for me. For the vast majority of military personnel, I suspect,…

IT’S EARLY MORNING ON SHANGHAI’S WEST Bund, and the lawns of the waterfront area are filled with picnickers savoring the annual cherry-blossom bloom. Parents push strollers through carpets of flowers while students sprawled on the grass share bottles of chilled cava. After three months of strict stay-at-home orders because of the COVID-19 pandemic, residents of China’s biggest city have re-emerged blinking into the light. “It’s crazy; I’ve never seen it so busy here,” says Sally Zhou, as she queues for coffee with her French bulldog. “People are desperate to get outside and enjoy themselves.” Even as COVID-19 spreads across the world, nowhere has replicated the scale and intensity of China’s unprecedented lockdown. The epicenter of the outbreak, Wuhan, was sealed off and other cities placed under quarantine. The world’s No.…

HOLLYWOOD NEVER STOPS FEELING NOSTALGIC FOR ITS golden age. For the Coen brothers, it’s a world of slumming playwrights, cigar-chomping execs and gossip columnists digging for dirt on fertile ground. Best Picture winner The Artist was a bittersweet remembrance of silent film. And last year’s Quentin Tarantino hit Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood imagined the studio system and its cowboys winning out over a new generation of hippies and radicals. Now Ryan Murphy, whose 2017 FX docudrama Feud amended one slice of studio history, reimagines the whole industry in the boldly titled miniseries Hollywood. His take is as fantastical as Tarantino’s, but as you’d expect from the megaproducer whose American Crime Story made Marcia Clark a feminist hero, it’s also far more progressive. Black, Asian-American, female and queer…

IN A MATTER OF MONTHS, 47-YEAR-OLD AQUANNA QUARLES saw her personal finances implode. First she totaled her car. Then the car she replaced the totaled one with was stolen. Then, in early March, her kitchen flooded. Quarles remembers thinking, “Oh my God, like what else could go wrong?” In Ohio, where Quarles lives, the pandemic hit in mid-March. State government began issuing stay-at-home orders, closing schools and shuttering businesses to prevent the spread of COVID-19. By the end of the month, the rest of the country had followed suit, effectively stalling the U.S. economy and pushing millions out of work. Quarles, who works for a home health care company, saw her hours, and her weekly earnings, cut by about half. In April, she came to the realization that for…

An international border runs between Konstanz, Germany, and Kreuzlingen, Switzerland, but residents moved freely between the municipalities before the COVID-19 pandemic. Then, in hopes of limiting infections, officials erected first one fence and, two weeks later, a second one, with a gap of several feet in between. The goal was to prevent the physical contact that these young couples managed on April 18, along a stretch where there’s still only a single barrier.

I often tell my students you don’t want to be interesting to doctors or historians. Yet here we are, in interesting times for both. The medical field is already studying COVID-19, and historians will get started in 30 years or so. By then they’ll have perspective, as well as public sources, from government documents to tweets. But to preserve the stories that are so often lost to the past, they’ll need our help—and that’s why we should all be keeping coronavirus journals. When I began studying the Women Airforce Service Pilots of World War II, I looked first at official sources, but it was clear that part of the story was missing. Why did they do it? How did they feel? For that, I turned to the women’s diaries. News…

LARRY HOGAN HAS GOT ANOTHER OF HIS ideas, and this one cracks him up. “I’m gonna call Pence!” says Hogan, startling his chief of staff, Matt Clark, who sits across a large, round faux-wood table. Hogan, the Republican governor of Maryland, is meeting with his coronavirus command team, a skeleton crew of state officials still reporting to the capitol in Annapolis. The conference rooms are all too narrow, so they are gathered in a cavernous event room, seated in alternate chairs to maintain social distancing. Hogan, a ruddy 63-year-old with jug-handle ears, has in front of him a dispenser of hand sanitizer, a can of Diet Coke and a starfish-shaped conference-call speaker. The President, Hogan reminds the group, recently chided him for going around Vice President Mike Pence’s coronavirus…

BECAUSE HUMANS SPEND SO MUCH ENERGY IN PURSUIT OF romance, we sometimes forget that platonic relationships can be even more complicated—and generally last longer too. That’s just one of the ideas thrumming beneath the surface of writer-director Alice Wu’s The Half of It, a prickly-tender film about teenage friendship, first love and all the blurry gradations in between. It’s sweet and funny, but also, in places, as raw as a scraped knee. Ellie Chu (Leah Lewis) is a straight-A student living in a dull town in the Pacific Northwest. She has a great, dry wit, but she doesn’t really have any friends, maybe because she’s managing so much anxiety at home: her father (Collin Chou) earned an advanced engineering degree in China, but in the States, where he moved his…
