Summary:
"After Life is a collective history of how Americans experienced, navigated, commemorated, and ignored mass death and loss during the global COVID-19 pandemic, mass uprisings for racial justice, and the attempted coup following the 2020 election. Inspired by the writers who documented American life during the Great Depression and World War II for the Works Progress Administration, the editors asked twenty-first-century historians to focus on the parallels, convergences, and differences between the exceptional "long 2020", and earlier eras in U.S. history"--Provided by publisher.
