MAKING ART DURING FASCISM

"Anytime you start to feel overwhelmed by the shitshow that is humanity’s impact on people, animals, and the planet, anytime you see that sentient cheeto’s awful face, anytime you think you cannot leave the house because the world is too hard, think about the art, performance, music, books, films that have made you want to be alive. Think of how those artists, like you, felt
overwhelmed by their life and times but they made the thing anyway. Your future audiences need your work." -Beth Pickens
