The 53rd State Occasional, No. 1: Our Genocides

Each edition of the Occasional invites a guest editor to talk with artists, thinkers and members of our community about questions that we have and topics that move us. For the inaugural issue, we invited actor/director/genie Paul Lazar to do the asking, and in turn he invited Jess Barbagallo, Tymberly Canale, Steve Cuiffo, Eric Dyer, Erik Ehn, Jim Findlay, Dayna Hanson, Keith Hennessy, Molly Hickok, Kristen Kosmas, Young Jean Lee, Trey Lyford, Kirk Lynn, Annie-B Parson, Kourtney Rutherford, Tina Satter, Sheena See, Scott Shepherd, Pete Simpson, Geoff Sobelle, Susie Sokol, and Karinne Keithley Syers to do the responding.
