Notably: It’s Alaska Day (marking the day Alaska went from Russian to American hands after William Seward, Lincoln’s and Johnson’s secretary of state, pulled off America’s second Louisiana Purchase, this time for $7.2 million. But they’re not celebrating in Alaska, not since the state cancelled snow crab season, leaving the crab fisheries in pieces. The reason: snow crab populations have collapsed.  The reason: the Bering Sea is getting too warm, crabs can’t bear it, their metabolisms go into overdrive, they are constantly on the hunt for food, can’t find any, and die. In CNN’s words: “The Alaska snow crab harvest has been canceled for the first time ever after billions of the crustaceans have disappeared from the cold, treacherous waters of the Bering Sea in recent years…. But the actual numbers behind that decision are shocking: The snow crab population shrank from around 8 billion in 2018 to 1 billion in 2021, according to Benjamin Daly, a researcher with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game.”

American traditions of authoritarianism have shaped American traditions of democracy in that they frame our ideas of who, exactly, can enjoy American freedom and American liberty. They degrade our moral sense and make it easier to look away from those who suffer under the worst of the state or those who are denied the rights they were promised as members of our national community. As we look to a November in which a number of vocal election deniers are poised to win powerful positions in key swing states, I think that the great degree to which authoritarianism is tied up in the American experience — and the extent to which we’ve been trained not to see it, in accordance with our national myths and sense of exceptionalism — makes it difficult for many Americans to really believe that democracy as we know it could be in serious danger. In other words, too many Americans still think it can’t happen here, when the truth is that it already has and may well again.

–From Jamelle Bouie’s “The U.S. Thinks ‘It Can’t Happen Here.’ It Already Has,” The New York Times, Oct. 18, 2022.
