Lige om lidt rammer vi årets længste nat og går igen mod lysere tider, i hvert fald hvad angår solskinstimer…
Man kan være mere tvivlende overfor hvornår der bliver lysere tider på den politiske front…
Illustrator Wendy MacNaughton og forfatteren Courtney E. Martin har lavet dette fine manifest, som en måde at approache det…
“This is precisely the time when artists go to work…”😊
“Pick up your pen. Pick up your paintbrush. Pick up your damn chin. Put your two calloused hands on the turntables, in the clay, on the strings. Get behind the camera. Look for that pinprick of light. Look for the truth (yes, it is a thing—it still exists.)
Focus on that light. Enlarge it. Reveal the fierce urgency of now. Reveal how shattered we are, how capable of being repaired. But don’t lament the break. Nothing new would be built if things were never broken. A wise man once said: there’s a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in. Get after that light.”
