Jelani Cobb, eminent American journalist and influential commentator, is the author of Three or More Is a Riot: Notes on How We Got Here: 2012-2025, an anthology of his recent work in The New Yorker, and a real-time portrait of our chaotic historical moment. The New York Times said, “¬In this collection of cultural criticism and reportage… Cobb offers a clear-eyed look at a turbulent decade of grass-roots social movements and the eventual right-wing backlash they inspired.”
Dean of the Columbia Journalism School, Cobb received the 2020 Peabody Award for the Frontline documentary, Whose Vote Counts?, and was a finalist for the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for commentary.
