THE CONCEPT behind IT OCCURS TO ME THAT I AM AMERICA was simple: a collection that would bring together writers and artists to tell stories that addressed ideas, thoughts or simply impressions regarding civil liberties and freedom through race, gender, to what it means to be an American – to be published on the one-year anniversary of the Women’s march and all in support of the ACLU. The results were not only diverse in subject matter, from dystopian worlds, to hate crime and even hilarious satire, but brought up the very nature of what it means to tell a story. Susan Minot’s “Listen” defies categories while expanding them. At once a discourse, a dialogue, a conversation, a poem, a story, it captures the way people speak and express their outer (and inner) thoughts, particularly at this complex moment in history. The myriad voices Minot employs with such skill are equally disparate and unifying, confused and imploring. “Listen” challenges us, as readers and as people, to not only think, reason, and listen to what others are saying but to what we are saying. –Jonathan Santlofer, Editor, IT OCCURS TO ME THAT I AM AMERICA
