Here’s the cover of next week’s issue of the New Yorker:
Artist Bob Staake writes about the cover:
It’s a celebratory moment for our country, and that’s what I tried to capture. (I don’t especially like those rainbow colors, but they are what they are—I had to use them.)
I wanted to celebrate the bravery of the President’s statement—a statement long overdue—but all the more appreciated in this political year.
