Joel takes us to Bend, Oregon, where a 16-year-old killed three children and a teacher at Silver Rail Elementary on Thursday before two adults stepped in to stop him. We trace how “El pueblo unido jamás será vencido,” a song written in Chile months before the 1973 coup, is being sung again from Paris to Minneapolis. And La Bola Negra, the Los Javis film that won Best Director at Cannes, is now in theaters, where Netflix plans to keep it for 47 days before it starts streaming.
