I first posted this in 2018 as I was working on imagery to represent what I was sensing. I saw it happening not only in the press but also on social media and among friends. The list of things we aren’t allowed to discuss is growing. People are being de-platformed, smeared and demonized. I believe as artists we have an obligation to defend free speech and informed civil debate. On and off of the “digital town square”. And especially if it’s for those with opinions that we despise– to paraphrase a Noam Chomsky quote. ~Despina
