The Memphis 10: With COVID complicating Thanksgiving, ditch the dining room table but keep the turkey
Volunteers including Jamayca Harris (left) and Roslyn Jackson (middle) dish up Thanksgiving dinners during the MemFeast to feed the homeless on Nov. 28, 2019, at Memphis City Hall. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, gatherings and events like this one will look different this year. (Mark Weber/Daily Memphian file)

Chris Herrington has covered the Memphis Grizzlies, in one way or another, since the franchise’s second season in Memphis, while also writing about music, movies, food and civic life. As far as he knows, he’s the only member of the Professional Basketball Writers Association who is also a member of a film critics group and has also voted in national music critic polls for Rolling Stone and the Village Voice (RIP). He and his wife have two kids and, for reasons that sometimes elude him, three dogs.
This Thanksgiving is a brief but particularly fraught moment of decision, another unwelcome marker in Our COVID Year, may it manage to remain singular.
