The 12,000-word story, pulling from his own reporting and memos from a superb team of Post reporters, took the reader from the ordinary promise of a crisp September morning into the chaotic and heart-wrenching details of an unfolding tragedy—with precise accounts from inside the planes, the twin towers, the pentagon and air traffic control towers, along with eye-witnesses in lower Manhattan and the living rooms of anxious relatives across the country. Nearly twenty years later, the story is an enduring memorial to the human cons...

The Nation PodcastsThe White Power Movement after El Paso: Kathleen Belew on domestic terrorism, plus Davis Maraniss on HUACWe’re still thinking about the terrorist attack in El Paso, where 22 people were killed at a Walmart and two dozen more were injured. Like almost all of these attacks, the El Paso killings have been treated as an isolated event carried out by a loner. But the attacks in Charleston, Charlottesville, Christchurch, El Paso and elsewhere are connected; they are all part of the White Power movement, with roots going back to the 1970s. That’s what Kathleen Belew says -- she writes for the New York Times op-ed page, she teaches history at the University of Chicago, and she’s t...

The Third Story with Leo SidranDavid MaranissDavid Maraniss has a motto: go there. What he means is that when he's researching one of his books, whether it's a biography of a person or the history of a place and time, he believes that in order to fully understand the story, he has to go to the physical location. Not, like, just for a weekend. He really goes there. He moves in. But there's another meaning behind the phrase "go there". He moves in, not only to the space, but also to the nuance, subtlety, complexity of a life, of a time, of the h...

Martin Bandyke Under Covers | Ann Arbor District LibraryMartin Bandyke Under Covers for August 2019: Martin talks to David Maraniss about A Good American Family: The Red Scare and My Father.From the publisher:
In a riveting book with powerful resonance today, Pulitzer Prize-winning author David Maraniss captures the pervasive fear and paranoia that gripped America during the Red Scare of the 1950s through the chilling yet affirming story of his family’s ordeal, from blacklisting to vindication.
Elliott Maraniss, David’s father, a WWII veteran who had commanded an all-black company in the Pacific, was spied on by the FBI, named as a communist by an informant, called before the House Un-American Activities Committee in 1952, fired from his newspaper job, and blacklisted for five years. Yet he never lost faith in A...

Talk CocktailWe Are Not Descended From Fearful Men: David Maraniss and "A Good American Family"Mark Twain is reported to have said that history does not really repeat itself, but it often rhymes. Today we live in a climate, not unlike the late ’40s and early ’50s, where fear is weaponized, and where suspicion of the other is exploited as a salve for change.
Yet there always seem to be brave men and women trying to rise above. As Ed Murrow said in his takedown of Senator Joe McCarthy,” we were not descended from fearful men. They were not men who feared to write or to speak,” who, again in Murrow’s words, “did...
