Context

In 2019, the Cathedral of Notre-Dame in Paris was grievously damaged by fire. A feud between President Trump and Congress over the Mexican border wall led to the then-longest ever federal government shutdown. A white supremacist mass shooter killed dozens of Muslims at prayer in Christchurch, New Zealand.

Notable deaths in 2019 included those of actors Carol Channing, Tim Conway, Doris Day, Albert Finney, Peter Mayhew and Luke Perry; architects Florence Knoll, I. M. Pei and Stanley Tigerman; baseball manager Frank Robinson; composers Michel Legrand and André Previn; director John Singleton; fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld; musicians Dick Dale, Mark Hollis, Keith Flint, Mac "Dr John" Rebennack, and Leon Redbone; novelist Herman Wouk; poet Mary Oliver; politician John Dingell; restaurateur Leah Chade; and scientists Wally Broecker and Murray Gell-Mann.
