I have this urge sometimes to make a hobby out of re-listening to archival postwar media in chronological order, like listening week-by-week to all those "Bell Telephone Radio Hour" things. It seems like the key to recovering whatever culture was before the Boomers.

On this note, I was looking up the news from July 13, 1946. I found this really touching remembrance that WEB Du Bois wrote for a friend of his. It's a pretty amazing little wormhole. You'll be glad you read it.
