Over the years, we've had compelling thinkers and doers from a wide range of fields—politics, humanities, health, economics, education, technology, foreign policy, arts, science, and beyond—stop by Zócalo. Check out their interviews in the green room: zps.la/3cjL6OA
ICYMI: "From 'Decorporeal'" by Anthony Sutton is our newest #poem, selected by April curator and Zócalo poetry editor Connie Voisine (@CLVoisine). zps.la/49Wm5GJ
Join us and @destinationshaw for the free program “How Do You Grow a Rose from Concrete?” on Thursday, May 9 at 6 PM PDT at Crenshaw High School (or watch live online). See you there! RSVP here: zps.la/dcmay9
We've been thinking about the past, present, and future of the public square as part of our 20th birthday series. From the second installment, we asked people with deep local ties to share what keeps them rooted to place. zps.la/3J0CsXC
Do we even need Shakespeare? @LeeEmrich taught a college class on Shakespeare asking students this. She explains what happened next: zps.la/4bd8KLf
“The new film Civil War is a historic cinematic achievement. British director Alex Garland has made a movie that might be worse than a real American civil war.” —@joemmathews zps.la/4aJ20EV
“How Do You Grow a Rose from Concrete?” Join us and @destinationshaw on May 9 to discuss the genesis and design of the open-air museum coming to Crenshaw Boulevard. Join us: zps.la/dcmay9
Our final "Up for Discussion" installment for our 20th birthday series asks our contributors to answer: How do we disagree in public? zps.la/4dgWZW6
Eclectic but curated. Smart without snark. Ideas journalism with a head and heart. Sign up for the Zócalo newsletter to get our latest essays and poems, and updates on our (always) free events. zps.la/newsletter
Zócalo's latest #poem is "From 'Decorporeal'" by Anthony Sutton. Read and listen to it here: zps.la/49Wm5GJ
For our April Sketchbook, illustrator Matt Wood considers humans' relentless addiction to innovation. "Why are we absolutely determined to 'improve' our way to extinction?" he asks. zps.la/49DPuFG
If the U.S. did break out into civil war, it wouldn’t look like the movie, says @joemmathews: “The fighting will not be between states ... our most bitter fault lines are around ideology, race, gender, age, class, education, immigrant status.” zps.la/4aJ20EV
Juventino Rosas wrote one of the most famous melodies of his generation. Playwright Oliver Mayer considers the forces that have prevented the composer from taking his rightful place among history's great melodists. zps.la/3QifEXo
Larry Earl is the lead historian at Destination Crenshaw. On May 31, he’ll join us for “Is Car Culture the Ultimate Act of Community in Crenshaw?,” a Zócalo and @destinationshaw event. zps.la/dcmay31
The digital public square is more than doomscrolling and distraction—it is our online meeting ground. Read the first of five installments for our special “Up for Discussion” 20th birthday series: zps.la/4anqTW2
Read and listen to Zócalo's latest #poem, "From 'Decorporeal'" by Anthony Sutton, author of the poetry collection #ParticlesofaStrangerLight. zps.la/49Wm5GJ
“If the U.S. does see another civil war, it will almost certainly not involve the new film’s vision of warring armies advancing to a final shootout at the White House.” Read @joemmathews on the newest dystopian blockbuster. zps.la/4aJ20EV
V. Joy Simmons is the senior art advisor at Destination Crenshaw. On May 9, she’ll join us for “How Do You Grow a Rose from Concrete?,” a Zócalo and @destinationshaw event. zps.la/dcmay9
Playwright Oliver Mayer's latest production, "Ghost Waltz," investigates the story of Mexican composer Juventino Rosas. "My job is to shine a light on these layers of whitewash hiding the lives of Rosas and so many others like him," Mayer writes. zps.la/3QifEXo
America feels as divided as ever. We’ve asked @jenmercieca, @StanfordEthics' Collin Anthony Chen, former @Oxford Union pres. Charlie Mackintosh, and deliberative democracy expert Carolyn Lukensmeyer about how we can keep our disagreements civil: zps.la/4dgWZW6

A fascinating story about a complex man and the many ways that Mexican migrants so often navigate transnational ties.
Ethnic studies scholar Adrián Félix traces the life of Andrés Bermúdez, a larger-than-life figure whose story speaks to the countless migrants who have made the U.S. their home while maintaining their connection to their ancestral motherlands. zps.la/3J740L3
