I say this as a historian and as a citizen of this country living in the American South. If we don\u2019t reckon with this staggering number, if we don\u2019t for a split second allow ourselves to stand open-eyed before the enormity of each life lost, then we lose our ability to act in ways that will stop it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino;\">Though numbers seemed to be declining for a bit,\u00a0COVID\u00a0cases in\u00a0Alabama\u00a0are up\u00a050%\u00a0from last week.\u00a0Whole\u00a0counties\u00a0here\u00a0have no hospitals, and what hospitals there are, are filling.\u00a0ICU beds are\u00a0in short supply.

What would it mean, instead, if each government official, before standing to make a speech, gave a two-minute eulogy to any one of the dead?
