Latino groups are trying to excite Latinos about redistricting amid a census that some say undercounted many of their communities. Here and there around the country, Latino advocacy groups have been instructing people on money and political power — and how to get it. The groups are trying to help growing communities of Latinos understand the next step following the 2020 census results: having a say in how their neighborhoods, towns, cities, counties, regions and states will be thrown together or split apart in the highly partisan redistricting process. The task is not an easy one. Redistricting is wonky and...

As the COVID Delta wave rages across the globe, China’s role in creating the pandemic is once again under scrutiny.
