You don’t know that your track lighting is the reason we have black out shades. But you might know the way to enlightenment now. Glad to only be able to see your ceiling, and imagine your writer’s life free from the mundane. You are another alley neighbor #withoutblinds.

The cat stays motionless, staring at you, wait to play. You eat chips, one at a time, while watching two programs. The one on your phone holds all of your attention. Eventually, kitty walks away. You reach and drink from a can. You are my new alley neighbor with #noblinds.

Yes to this ⬇️. Collective advocacy cash to BIPOC arts orgs already doing the CONSISTENT work, meeting community need & creating WELCOMING experiences.
(Still processing the Culture Community study hosted by @SloverLinett @BarrFdn & @ArtsinBoston at the @BPLBoston)

If you have followed along so far, please follow @CreateTheVoteMA and @MASSCreative.
Also for the love of God, someone please figure out a way to give our BIPOC artists & arts leaders some serious $. Their sweat equity is why we are better off as a city and state!

Writing of how creativity animates Black self determination and helps us see possibility in an era of violent white supremacist, Elizabeth Alexandra writes, “Artists make radical solutions all day long...We bring it into community.” #TrayvonGeneration is a must read!

Anyone else see the underlying “banality of evil” similarity between totalitarian Xi’an approach and US’s unvaccinated personal freedom? #HannahArendt definition: “an extraordinary diligence in looking out for his personal advancement.” #omicron @NYTimes nytimes.com/2022/01/12/busin…

Art and artists do it for less, without hurling through space. “The best way to access this everyday awe is by allowing yourself to wander, to avoid following a schedule each moment of the day.” Dasher Keltner #everydayawe #cultivateawe
