THE UPFRONT

Dear BoF Community,

The path to Black Friday is looking more like an obstacle course for many retailers. Between record-high shipping surcharges, new lockdowns and an out-of-season Amazon Prime Day, it's clear that the usual tactics won't work this year, even as the stakes have never been higher. Cathaleen Chen walks you through a holiday season like no other. 

Elsewhere, McDonald's struck a chord with its Travis Scott collaboration. Alexandra Mondalek tells you why fashion should be taking notes.

[Daily article] October 26: William T. Anderson

William Anderson (1840 – October 26, 1864), known as "Bloody Bill"
Anderson, was one of the deadliest pro-Confederate guerrilla leaders of
the American Civil War, leading a band of volunteer partisans who
targeted Union loyalists and federal soldiers in Missouri and Kansas.
After his father was killed by a Union loyalist judge during the war,
Anderson killed the judge and fled to Missouri where he robbed travelers
and killed several Union soldiers. In 1863 he took a leading role in the
Lawrence massacre and later participated in the Battle of Baxter
Springs. By 1864 Anderson was the leader of a group of raiders in
Missouri. In September 1864, he led a raid on the town of Centralia,
where his men captured a passenger train; they executed 24 unarmed Union
soldiers in the Centralia Massacre. Later that day they killed more than
a hundred Union militiamen in an ambush. Anderson died in battle a month
later.
