When horror-obsessed Riley Lawrence and his group of college friends arrive in the small town of Carousel for their Centennial Celebration, the few decrepit cars parked in the street don’t scare them. But when they enter a locked building, an animatronic usher hands them each a ticket, and the lights dim, Riley realizes they’ve entered the inescapable patchwork of a horror movie set. And they’ve each been assigned an archetype—Scholar, Athlete, Eye Candy, Final Girl—to play out as the curtains rise.

These are the extras in the greatest story ever told.

Downtown, Greenwich Village teemed with beatniks, folkies, and so-called misfits like Kitty and her lover. Kitty Genovese evokes the Village’s gay and lesbian underground with deep feeling and colorful detail.

The label is not the person. Categories are efficient. They cost more than they save. The most replicated finding in social psychology is also the simplest: when people get to know each other one at a time, prejudice tends to weaken. We don't have a labels-and-categories problem because we lack data. We have it because labels are fast, and the human in front of us is slow, and the brain takes the shortcut roughly every time it's allowed to. Here's what nobody admits: the work of refusing the label is not a one-time enlightenment. It is a 21-day, low-grade, daily practice — a small set of ...
