TIME is a study in leadership, telling the history of our time through the people who make it WHAT MAKES A LEADER? TIME HAS BEEN many things across its nearly 100 years—a news digest, a journal of ideas, an arbiter of influence, a chronicler of what matters across virtually every discipline. But there is a constant across the decades: TIME is a study in leadership, telling the history of our time through the people who make it. Often, the leaders through whom we tell the world’s stories are household names, from the Speaker of the House on the cover of our first issue in 1923 to Queen Elizabeth II on the most recent. What is striking to me throughout this new issue is the extraordinary array of leaders featured…

Nearly 50 years ago, Donald Trump learned the legal strategy that would repeatedly get him out of tight legal jams. It was 1973, and the Justice Department had just filed a civil rights lawsuit against Trump and his father Fred Trump. The complaint alleged that the Trumps and their company, which managed some 14,000 apartments in Queens, Brooklyn, and Staten Island, had violated the Fair Housing Act by systematically flagging the applications of Black renters and steering them away from available units. To push back, the Trumps hired the famously combative Roy Cohn—Senator Joseph McCarthy’s chief counsel during the 1950s Red Scare hearings—and sued the Justice Department for $100 million, claiming defamation. The case naming the Trumps was settled two years later. That early entanglement with the Justice Department drove…

Philadelphia has had a curfew for kids and teenagers since the 1950s, but—faced with a second straight year of record homicides and surging violent crime—the city is now doubling down on its efforts to get minors off the streets at night: a new ordinance temporarily expanded the city’s 10 p.m. curfew to 16- and 17-year-olds, who could previously be out until midnight. Community activists and residents tell TIME that police also stepped up enforcement, picking up more kids and issuing more fines to parents. Brian Lemon, 14, from North Philly, has been detained six times for curfew violations this year. One night, he says, cops picked him up less than 30 seconds after the 10 p.m. curfew, as he was walking home from a friend’s house. “They grabbed me like…

SZA 32 · The real deal BY LIZZO SZA and I first met years ago in Minneapolis. I was a fan of her music, so when she came to town, my friends and I went to her show. We ended up taking a selfie together in the bathroom. I still send her that selfie from time to time, because we had just met and didn’t know that we would have this long relationship. A year later, I booked a tour and she was the headliner. Throughout the experience, she was just so kind and so cool. After that, I literally watched her blow up. When she dropped CTRL, her debut studio album, it was a cultural f-cking reset. She changed the world! The authenticity in her craft—the way she’s able…

THE QUEEN Margit Alm of Eltham, Australia, hailed Cecil Beaton’s 1968 portrait of Queen Elizabeth II—who died Sept. 8 at the age of 96—on the cover of the Sept. 26/Oct. 3 issue as “beautiful” and “elegant.” Lebanese Twitter user @harmardir likened reading Larry Sutton and Steve Dougherty’s obituary to “entering a time machine” and traveling through 70 years of world history. The news of the Queen’s death drew tributes from her admirers worldwide. “She was the world’s vision of an ideal female leader and grandmother,” John A. Gover of Rio Rancho, N.M., wrote in an email. Frederick R. Bedell Jr. of Bellerose, N.Y., called Queen Elizabeth II “a great leader who had such a profound love for people around the globe.” Facebook user Mary McMartin described the Queen as…

Near-Earth space is swarming with asteroids—nearly 30,000 of them—and the largest ones pose a risk to our planet, threatening us with a cosmic collision like the one that wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. But we’re not dinosaurs, and we can do something about space rocks, deflecting them before they do us any harm. On Sept. 26, NASA’s DART spacecraft collided with an asteroid 7 million miles away in a proof-of-concept mission to show deflection technology works. LOCKED AND LOADED DART stands for Double Asteroid Redirection Test, and the 1,260-lb., 8.5-ft. craft was aimed at the 530-ft. asteroid Dimorphos, which orbits the larger, 2,560-ft. asteroid Didymos. Dimorphos makes one circuit around Didymos every 11 hr. 55 min. The goal of DART: smash into Dimorphos and see if it’s…

Have you ever sent a text or shared something online that you immediately regretted? Most of us have. Now a growing number of apps and services are offering users the alluring ability to edit those messages. In September alone, two tech giants, Twitter and Apple, introduced editing features. Twitter kicked off September by announcing it would test an edit button, first internally and then among paid subscribers to its premium service, Twitter Blue. Within two weeks of that move, Apple released its new iOS 16 operating system, which lets users—for the first time—edit and unsend iMessages. Editing tools have been a long-sought-after feature on both services, gaining even more attention when Elon Musk proposed a Twitter edit button to his followers just ahead of his bid to buy the company.…

Oliver Jeffers still keeps a studio in Brooklyn, where he lived for 17 years before returning to his native Belfast to be closer to family during the pandemic. When I meet the author and artist in his studio on a drizzly afternoon a few hours before he’ll recite an original poem at a gala for the U.N. General Assembly, it’s awash in paint-splattered amusements. In one corner sits a ghost, a sheet with eyeholes that Jeffers proudly says glows in the dark and “really freaks people out.” On a ceiling-high chalkboard, written in his signature scrawl—a cross between a child’s handwriting and a ransom note—his list of tasks begins: “Glue moon.” Sure enough, on a large painted moon, he’s been testing out paper cutouts of astronauts from old books. There’s…

After parliamentary elections, Giorgia Meloni, leader of the Brothers of Italy party, is set to become the first woman to lead her country’s government. That fact is obscured for many Europeans by accusations that she’ll also be Italy’s first fascist Prime Minister since World War II. Meloni flatly rejects this charge, despite her party’s origins. Her party has “handed fascism over to history,” she insists. Some of her supporters say the fascist label is a slur designed to weaken her appeal for Euro-skeptic Italians hungry for decisive leadership and change. In truth, 21st century Italy is hardly ripe for dictatorship, and there is no good reason to fear that Meloni, unlike fascists of the past century, wants to destroy her country’s democracy. But her blunt anti-E.U. rhetoric, her outspoken homophobia,…

KEKE PALMER 29 · Unparalleled performer BY QUEEN LATIFAH Keke Palmer is one of the most talented human beings I’ve ever met. When she was younger and we first crossed paths, she already was brimming with so much energy and power, so much humor, and so much light and professionalism. Then I got to meet her family and her siblings, and I immediately understood how she was already so remarkably together at such a young age: she was surrounded by true love and true caring. Watching Keke evolve as a young woman has been a joy. She is the epitome of grace, poise, and honesty. To watch her grow as an artist, taking on a range of challenging roles—including her stunning performances in Akeelah and the Bee, Pimp, and the critically…

JOEL KIM BOOSTER 34 · Excellence in action BY MARGARET CHO When we wrapped Fire Island, which Joel Kim Booster wrote, produced, and starred in, we were given a gift of shorts that said IT’S GIVING MOVIE. That’s exactly what I think when I look at Joel. He’s giving star. He’s giving excellence. He’s giving the queer Asian Americans something truly amazing to aspire to. And he’s giving laughter and lots of important observations on race, class, culture, sex, and being gay in all of those realms. He’s giving voice to the previously unheard and unknown. He’s giving a gorgeous face to the invisible. As a fellow Asian American queer comedian, he’s giving community. And together, we are giving family. Cho is a comedian and Emmy-nominated actor GEORGE M. JOHNSON…

SYDNEY SWEENEY 25 · Unwavering force BY MAUDE APATOW 2022 is the year of Sydney Sweeney and I’ve had a front-row seat. I play Sydney’s sister Lexi on Euphoria and have gotten to watch her acting up close, literally two inches away from her face. In one of her many memorable moments from this season, Sydney’s character Cassie is in a hot tub watching her best friend Maddy having a passionate fight with her boyfriend Nate, who is having an affair with Cassie. Stressed-out from guilt, jealousy, horniness, rage, and from being hammered, Cassie finally throws up in the middle of the hot tub. Sydney juggles all of those emotions in a fierce, comic ballet that only she could pull off. I’ve never met anyone who works harder or…

5% Additional water in the earth’s atmosphere after a volcanic eruption near Tonga in January, according to a Sept. 22 study in Science. Researchers say the added vapor could cause further global warming ‘If he is the nominee, I won’t be a Republican.’ Representative Liz Cheney, referring to former President Donald Trump, to the Texas Tribune on Sept. 24 ‘I WANT PEOPLE OUT THERE TO KNOW THAT THERE ARE CITIZENS IN JAPAN WHO ARE OPPOSING THIS EVENT.’ Shinsaku Nohira, one of thousands of protesters at the Sept. 27 state funeral of assassinated former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, to CNN ‘It’s a disgrace that a week after this storm … we still don’t fully have water.’ Hevel Vélez Luciano, who was among the more than 1 million Puerto Ricans left…

Student-loan forgiveness challenged A California libertarian group, the Pacific Legal Foundation, challenged President Biden’s student-debt forgiveness plan with a lawsuit on Sept. 27. The group argued that Biden does not have the authority to cancel up to $20,000 in federal student debt per borrower, and asked a judge to halt the plan. Chess champ accuses rival of cheating World chess champion Magnus Carlsen accused a rival who won a surprise victory over him of cheating. In a Sept. 26 statement, Carlsen alleged that Hans Niemann cheated during in-person chess games; Niemann had admitted to cheating in online matches years ago, but has denied any wrongdoing during in-person matches. McConnell backs election-law change Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell will “proudly support” legislation to overhaul the rules for certifying presidential elections…

During then President Donald Trump’s single term, he envisioned a spiteful shifting of migrants into Democratic strongholds. He even threatened to order the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to sift through the thousands of newcomers seeking asylum in the hopes of finding the supposed hardened criminals and dispatching them to places like New York and California with the goal of overrunning already stretched systems. The scheme ended up in the lap of Miles Taylor, who was then the top political hand at the DHS. Taylor recounted in a recent MSNBC interview how he sought a way out. “We went to our general counsel’s office to find every way to go tell them that was illegal. We got enough options to go back to the White House,” recalled Taylor, who resigned…

FARWIZA FARHAN 36 · Defending an ecosystem BY JANE GOODALL When I began, everyone said, “You can’t do it all. You have got to focus. You can’t do education and forestry and agriculture and education—you’ve got to choose.” But what’s the point of educating a young woman if she goes back to her village and dies because of a lack of sanitation? It’s all interconnected. We need to solve for these problems at the same time—and it’s clear Farwiza Farhan has taken this truth to heart. Forests like those in the Leuser Ecosystem are one of the great lungs of the world, absorbing CO₂ from the atmosphere and storing it in their leaves and trunks and the forest soils. And if these forests are cut down, then that means…
