As the second decade of the millennium comes to a close, we, like every year in the past, attempt to group these stories into a few simple words. For 2019, perhaps we may say protest, or death, or political drama. And we may be correct in classifying some of these stories. But each year, the stories that define it are so much more diverse, varied, and colorful – each one unique in itself. Nevertheless, there are trends that swept 2019, making it a distinctive year in the history books. Anger towards authority was one. We saw massive democracy protests in Hong Kong, demonstrations against the CAA in India, marches challenging rising fuel prices in Haiti, riots in Chile over cost of living, climate action strikes around the world, and much more in a multitude of other countries. In 2019, the people of the world wanted a change from the status quo, and, for such change, were prepared to endure anything. Death and disaster, unfortunately, were another. 1000 perished in Cyclone Idai across eastern Africa. 270 died in a catastrophic Brazilian dam collapse. 259 were murdered in one of the world’s deadliest terrorist attacks in Sri Lanka. 227 lost their lives in flooding in South Asia. And the second Boeing 737 MAX, Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302, crashed, killing 157 and grounding all Boeing 737 MAX aircraft into 2020. Extreme weather battered our globe, from Hurricane Dorian in the Caribbean to record-breaking wildfires in California and a deadly volcanic eruption in New Zealand. In the United States, politics, once again, dominated the news. We began the year during the longest federal government shutdown in US history, and ended it amidst only the third ever impeachment of a US president. The US left the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty with Russia, established to limit nuclear proliferation, and the 2015 Paris Agreement, a worldwide accord on climate change. Relations with Iran deteriorated to the brink of war. But 2019 wasn’t all stories of death and turmoil. It was much more nuanced. We saw the first all-female spacewalk and the first image of a black hole. For the first time in history, Miss America, Miss Teen USA, and Miss USA were all black women. The leader of ISIS was killed in a US special operation, US unemployment dropped to a 50-year low, and Avengers: Endgame shook the world, becoming the highest grossing film of all time. After an initial buzz from the opening of the Stephen A. Schwarzman College of Computing, news at MIT this year was dominated by the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Media Lab director Joi Ito resigned amid backlash from news that Epstein donated to the Media Lab with Ito’s knowledge, and President Reif, who too faced growing calls to resign, contracted an independent investigator to probe the $800,000 donated by foundations connected to Epstein. In more positive news, faculty were awarded Nobel Prizes in Chemistry and Economics, and MIT Medical broke the record for the most flu shots in a single day (a whopping 9,378!). As we enter the third decade of the millennium, some of the stories of 2019 will be remembered, and others, unfortunately, may be forgotten. Looking back, it may appear that most of these stories have been negative, but we must remember that each day, our world is filled with so much more happiness than sadness – so much more joy than sorrow. But our world is clearly not perfect, and as members of the MIT community, we all have the tools to make the world a better place. So let’s go do it.
