01-28-2025 2:38 PM

Reparations. For what? For whom? What does this word mean? At its basic level, Reparations means to make someone whole for past wrongs. Today it is usually phrased as “Reparations for Slavery” to be bestowed on descendants of peoples enslaved in pre-13th Amendment America.

Artwork from the ashes: Heather Maloney’s new album, ‘Exploding Star,’ was almost too personal to share
01-24-2025 12:31 PM

By CAROLYN BROWN

Heather Maloney almost didn’t release her upcoming album, “Exploding Star,” to the public. An album born of grief and loss was too raw, too personal, to go public, she felt, so she kept it for herself. But when her closest friends and family suggested that it could help others who were grieving, Maloney changed her mind and decided to share the album with the world — and it’ll make its debut in Northampton in two weeks.


Columnist Susan Wozniak: Dylan film resonates with time, place
01-24-2025 7:01 AM

By SUSAN WOZNIAK

In the last week before Christmas, among women definitely over 55, “the Bob Dylan film” became a subject of discussion. I knew nothing about “A Complete Unknown” with TimothéeChalamet cast as Bob. Having seen his work, I was interested. However, would this be a movie with an actor who neither sang nor played an instrument? There is always something generally awkward about dubbing.

Columnist Carrie N. Baker: How to model the world we desire
01-23-2025 8:04 AM

By CARRIE N. BAKER

Intense political polarization in contemporary American society shapes not only national politics, but local politics as well. It’s happening across partisan boundaries, but also within the left as well as the right. Some people appear to have lost the capacity to disagree without demonizing one another, calling each other names, assuming bad intentions and engaging in character assassination. Examples abound, such as recent personal attacks on social media against Northampton’s mayor Gina-Louise Sciarra; attacks on Amherst school board members that resulted in multiple resignations in 2023; student protesters’ treatment of Smith College’s new president last year; and call outs that led to the cancelation of the 2021 Western Massachusetts Visual Arts and Poetry Biennial.

01-22-2025 3:09 PM

By CAROLYN BROWN

Jonathan Edwards, one of Northampton’s most famous residents, was a revolutionary preacher whose legacy has endured through centuries. He was the first minister in Northampton to baptize African Americans, yet he did not free those he enslaved. He was a loving husband, yet he supported complementarianism, a theological belief that gender roles are ordained by God. And his work inspired several suicides.
