Before Joe Biden s inauguration, a look at how the political event has developed into a cultural touchstone over the years Joe Biden’s inauguration will feature Tom Hanks, Justin Timberlake and Jon Bon Jovi but remotely. The transfer of presidential power in the US has always been a signature political event. However, Biden s inauguration will be different by necessity, in an age of illness and threats. So many people thronged President Andrew Jackson’s inaugural reception that he was said to have escaped the White House through a window. President John F Kennedy enlisted a Rat Pack friend, Frank Sinatra, to arrange the entertainment when he took office. And, well, the Obamas danced to Beyoncé.

Philanthropy professional Jen Bokoff, awarded a blue checkmark by Twitter, tweeted shortly before Christmas: “This is your annual reminder that not everyone celebrates Christmas. The default to ‘Merry Christmas’ as a normal greeting is also white supremacy culture at work. If someone celebrates, by all means. But so many don’t.” Shortly after Christmas the person the Washington Post once promoted as, I kid you not, its conservative representative, Jennifer Rubin [email her] used her Blue Checkmark to write something very similar:

It is the music that transports me and these are the hymns that do it. (Unsplash/Steve Halama) It is Christmas Eve. There are two times a year, Christmas and Easter, when the mystery of our salvation becomes so palpable and yet ineffable, that I find myself in the pew crying, unable to sing the final verse of a favorite hymn.

It is the music that transports me and these are the hymns that do it.
