Art as Activism in times of political silencing
Our
contemporary democracies – depressingly inadequate, yet unsurpassed forms of regime – are under threat, due to their own failures
to construct social equality, sustainability, and peace.
Populist agitators cultivate hatred
and reintroduce scapegoating and open discrimination to mainstream politics. These increasing tensions in the political climate
make necessary new forms of alliances and organizations that invent and implement improved solutions for co-existence.
