On this week’s Front Table, witness migration through unlikely lenses: how plants and humans alike take root across borders, a teenager transformed by boxing before vanishing without a trace, and a Nigerian woman contending with guilt, love, and identity in a new country. Then, navigate the layered histories of race and resistance from the intersecting burdens of Black womanhood to a reframing of Palestine through global racial politics. Finally, critique adverse ideologies with an apocalyptic, satirical plunge into Californian wealth and an exploration of American literature's historically popular anti-state sentiment.
