America is changing.
And so is the world.
But what's happening in America isn't just the cause of global upheaval.
It's also a symptom of disruption that's happening everywhere.
I'm Asma Khalid in Washington, DC.
I'm Tristan Redman in London.
And this is the global story.
Every weekday, we'll bring you a story from this intersection where the world and America meet.

Last month I went to a public charter school in Southeast D.C.
and I walked in through the building and into the back of the library into this tiny little music room where there were a bunch of kids getting instruments set up.
That's Enterprise reporter Marisa Lange.
She recently went to some schools around D.C.
to check out their new music programs.
So there were a handful of students, these are teenagers, aging between 14 and 18 years old,
and they were setting up drums and a keyboard,
bass guitar, they were getting ready for band practice.
This band is sort of unique because unlike a lot of public schools,
they weren't setting up to play jazz or classical music, they were getting ready to play go-go.
Gogo is a type of music signature to DC.
