Can Art Actually Change the World?
Manage episode 335263099 series 3351765
Folks Friends, Family, Revolutionaries & initiates,
It is hard enough finding yourself in this world and understanding where you fit in it, while pretending to make enough to eat. Whether we are intimate friends in real life, or we happen to follow each other on social media platforms, the difference in the integrity of our humanity is only a conversation away.
Stripping away the badges and looking at the simplest aspect of life: a home, a city that represents and looks like you; welcomes you are things most take for granted. To some like (@MarisaDelucastudio) it is the heartbeat to life. Finding ways to capture a dying city, only to feel the hear the call of an entire community outside of oneself. Struck so personally and viscerally by the images shared across the television screens, it was impossible to keep a talented artistic humanitarian down.
Unafraid to stand toe-to-toe with the government bullies, but wise enough to use her intellect and fine art motor skills. Marisa has created an organization @artistsinsolidarityofficial that helps bridge pathways to humanity. Specifically to some of the Native Mexican sols whose ancestors were the original caretakers of this land. A bit of color here, community of artists there; and oh the Humanity one can paint.
From the fringes of social media, chance meetings at pop-up events, and direct voluntolding from trusted friends; listen as we find more ways to Humanize a wildly diverse community of individuals. Through conversation, art, and a bit of online magical auction, enjoy another degree of Humanity.
Thank you @marisa for dropping knowledge and being a legit co-conspirator. Bite em in the knee caps! @Asett_auco for folks thinking we capture these voices so well, nah it's the Visionary Master of Arts. @Xloomus for the looong ass #HumanizeUs intro.
Always you Friends, Family, Revolutionaries, & Initiates, there's no love, conversation, or wildly diverse communication without you.
Keep sharing the voices of the community, make em rain down from the mountaintop; because Thoughts are Free, Revolution takes Action; Be Revolutionary.
