Freedom is a word I’ve been thinking about a lot lately. It’s one that gets thrown around these days in different contexts, whether it’s the freedom to do and say what we want or the freedom to be and express who we are. Our understanding of what freedom is and who gets to experience it is at the core of so many of the issues that both unite and divide us in this election year. Freedom is often discussed in individual terms, but it is all interconnected. It’s a subject we explore across our platforms—and throughout this issue. AT 28, EMMA CORRIN is already an accomplished stage and screen actor—one who fully inhabits every role, whether it’s playing Princess Diana in The Crown or a Marvel supervillain in this summer’s…

IT WAS GRETA LEE who did it. When the actor appeared on the red carpet at the SCAD Savannah Film Festival back in October 2023, she was wearing the Row’s Xhefri hat, which has a pillbox shape in the front and a Kangol-style folded brim in the back. “Greta just looked so cool and great,” says Laura Reilly, a former e-commerce writer and editor, as well as a founder of the popular shopping newsletter Magasin. “She was wearing the hat, it wasn’t wearing her, and I was like, I want to feel like that.” So she called the store and put it on hold. Reilly wore the occasional baseball cap when she was younger, but she only really started to experiment with hats in the last year. Her gateway was…

Most tourists traveling to Kenya tend to focus on the safari experience; in recent years, wildlife reserves like the Masai Mara have become so overcrowded during the high season that the country has had to cap the numbers of visitors. It’s the mission of designer and hotelier Anna Trzebinski, who was born in Germany and grew up in Kenya, to “rethink the Big Five,” she says, referencing the most popular animals to see on safari. “This country is just as much about its people.” To that end, she has recently opened Jannah (jannahlamu.com), an elegant hotel on Lamu that encourages an immersive experience beyond the sanctuaries. Since the late 1960s, the hotel of choice on the island off the north Kenyan coast has been the Peponi (peponihotel.com), a sprawling whitewashed…

In 2020, at the peak of the pandemic, before the first vaccines had rolled out, I took Instagram off of my phone. Peak pandemic had led to peak scroll; those of us lucky enough to be stuck at home on lockdown had too much time to peer into other people’s lives, filtered and algorithmically served up to sate our curiosities and stoke our insecurities. My screen-time reports were embarrassing. I was served an army of beige influencers; from their square frames, they stared back at me serenely in their beige loungewear with their beautiful beige children inside these airy, spotless beige homes in whatever vacation destination they had escaped to. Where was the mess? Where were the piles of laundry? Books? Toys? Where were the tears? Where was the rage?…

Country music’s popularity is at an all-time high in America, with the genre boasting a more diverse audience base than ever before. But the marginalization of Black performers was once an institutional part of the business. For decades, artists of color in the Nashville-centered music world were largely excluded from popular venues and circuits, and labels divided their releases into records for white audiences and “race records” for nonwhite ones. It’s a subject that Beyoncé delved into headlong with the release this past spring of Cowboy Carter, which pays tribute to some of the trailblazing Black women who have helped shape country music. Among them: Linda Martell, the first Black woman to perform at the Grand Ole Opry; author, educator, and award-winning song-writer Alice Randall, who released her memoir and…

Of course, after the pandemic, the desire for self-expression took on new urgency. People spent so much time behind face masks, and hats offer a way to boldly say, “Look at me.” “For better or worse, we’re really in a declarative moment,” says Linville. “God knows there are some declarations that make you want to just close your eyes. But I think that people are wanting to put themselves out there.”During the pandemic, Johnson “randomly bought a cowboy hat,” and he has since become taken with hats of all kinds. Inspired by an Instagram photo of Solange wearing a Muppetesque fuzzy topper, he purchased a secondhand feather hat at Vintage Thrift in New York’s Gramercy neighborhood in 2020, then one of writer, illustrator, and collector Jenny Walton’s woven raffia hats,…

Victor Montalvo was 17 when he headed off to his first international battle. The competition was at one of the largest hip-hop dance festivals in the world, the Notorious IBE in the Netherlands. Victor didn’t even have a passport. The longest flight he’d ever taken from Florida was to Illinois. But by that point, breaking—or as it’s better known, by its popular misnomer, breakdancing—had already become his life. Victor, now 30, who competes as B-Boy Victor, inherited his love for the dance from his father, Victor Sr., a B-boy who formed a crew with his twin brother, Hector, in Mexico in the 1980s. Growing up, Victor Jr. always understood breaking as a family affair, with his three siblings and cousins taking turns on the cardboard. (Now and then, his dad…

TO FAITH RINGGOLD, who passed away on April 13 at the age of 93, freedom was not inevitable but something that constantly needed to be fought for. It was a subject Ringgold explored in her art, which included elaborate quilts and mixed-media pieces that stitched together powerful narratives about family, community, gender, race, and what it meant to live in a country that promised freedom for everyone but provided it for only some. It also inspired her activism in the 1960s and 1970s, as she protested the art world’s systematic exclusion of women and artists of color from mainstream galleries and institutions. For Ringgold, who was born and raised in Harlem, quilting was a family tradition that went back to her great-great-grandmother, who had been enslaved. Ringgold viewed it as…

One of the earliest times I remember realizing the significance of my dad’s political work was when the police first raided our apartment in Moscow in 2011. I was 10 years old. I distinctly recall getting a text message from my mom, Yulia, while waiting for the bus at school. She said, “Don’t freak out. There are police officers in our house. Come home as soon as you can and try to hide your electronics.” In Russia, the police officers who conduct politically motivated raids hunt primarily for phones and laptops, even those belonging to children. This is done to complicate and slow down the person’s political work; in reality, these raids really more closely resemble robberies. As I stepped into our hallway, I was “welcomed” by two masked policemen…

The history of beach fragrances is short and, quite literally, sweet. It used to be that only a select number of fragrance notes conjured the feeling of your toes in the sand; think coconut daiquiris, juicy fruits, Coppertone sunscreen. Perfumers now have adopted a more sophisticated approach to capturing the essence of the beach. “Newer beach-inspired fragrances are not an overdose of tropical notes,” says Robertet perfumer Jérôme Epinette. “They focus on pairing these lush scents with unique and elevated notes that bring complexity and dimension.” Early iterations erred on the side of tropical and mostly came in the form of sunbathing products, including the passion-fruit-and-mangoscented Hawaiian Tropic sunscreen and the fruity, floral Bain de Soleil Orange Gelée, which reigned in ’80s and ’90s French beach culture. It wasn’t until…

Emma Corrin is scraping butter over a hot cross bun. It’s Monday afternoon outside a London bakery. “The most transgressive human desire is autonomy,” Corrin says levelly, their blue eyes clear and unblinking. “The ability to do what you want, have sex with who you want, dress how you want, say what you want.” It’s a statement that makes me wonder how Corrin’s own desire for autonomy plays into their artistry and chimeric talent for embodying everything from British princesses to amateur sleuths. Now, they’re taking on Cassandra Nova in Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine, the evil twin sister of Professor X and the latest supervillain to face Ryan Reynolds’s Deadpool and Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine. “It felt like working with a skin-covered Swiss Army knife,” says Reynolds, conjuring a disturbing image…
