Good morning.

It鈥檚 been an extraordinary 12 months. From hate infiltrating the mainstream to extremists rallying in the streets; from the 60th anniversary of the Little Rock Nine to modern-day public school segregation; since the Weekend Read began arriving in email inboxes a year ago, we鈥檝e explored these pressing issues and more each Saturday morning.

We know the fight for equality and justice doesn鈥檛 begin and end in the courts. Investigative reporting and analysis from outlets around the country 鈥� and by our own staffers 鈥� are critical to raising awareness and holding the powerful accountable.

We鈥檙e heartened to know so many people are reading along with us. Here鈥檚 a look back at some of our most widely read Weekend Reads:

Weekend Read: Mississippi police called ICE. Then police shot an unarmed man.

Weekend Read: It took Charlottesville for Silicon Valley to stand up to hate

Weekend Read: White supremacists rally in Virginia to defend the Confederacy
The removal of a Confederate monument was the impetus for white supremacists descending on Charlottesville, Virginia, but it鈥檚 not the only town grappling with the issue of Confederate monuments.
