Future 1/6 narratives
the true crime that's worth your time
It’s hard for me to believe a year (and a day) has passed since the 1/6 insurrection. The disorienting danger of it still seems immediate — and though we’ve already seen a handful of longform narratives contending with it, from a news standpoint and via documentary feature, it’s no doubt just the tip of the topic’s content-berg.
So whom do you want to hear from on this topic? Alex Gibney? Robert Caro? David Grann? This may sound insane, but I’d like Laurie Anderson to take a run at it; failing that, American Animals director Bart Layton is also a top choice for me, and if Pamela Colloff writes a monograph about it, obviously I’d read that too.
