"Generations"
New cover The New Yorker

Artwork Kadir Nelson:
Sitting on the stoop is such a New York thing,” Kadir Nelson, the artist behind this week’s cover, says. He lives in Los Angeles but has fond memories of the Clinton Hill neighborhood of Brooklyn, from his days as a student at Pratt Institute. “Brownstones, stoops, leaves turning: that’s fall in New York, and I was also thinking about all the sweet moments I’ve had with my daughters.”
