Veteran journalist Doug Cu***ng tours the Carter Presidential Library and Museum with Luke Kur Malith, a refugee from South Sudan who grew up knowing Jimmy Carter only as “an amazing person to the people of South Sudan,” but never that he was president of the United States. Luke’s story is one example of how Carter's post-presidency work touched lives across the globe in unexpected ways.

In the wake of President Jimmy Carter's passing this afternoon, we've published a deeply personal and reflective piece by our editor-in-chief, Chuck Reece. This isn’t just another obituary—it’s a heartfelt elegy that weaves together personal memories with historical significance.

Chuck takes us on a journey from a chance encounter at a county fair long ago to the global stage, where Carter's influence reshaped our understanding of post-presidential impact. Through Chuck's eyes, we see Carter not just as a former president, but as a fellow Southerner who embodied the best of our values.
