Music is the voice of the unheard, the rhythm of resistance.

When the powerful forget their humanity, music remembers ours.

Now is not the time to play it quiet, now is the time to turn it up - louder than injustice, louder than greed - so no one can pretend they didn’t hear.

Since there are some #Florida folks on here, thought I’d let you know that I’ve joined several local artists in donating to Second Heart Homes 4th annual art auction. This org has changed the lives of numerous houseless ppl in #Sarasota & Manatee Counties. Collect art for a great cause. The piece I’m donating is an oversized pitcher to be used as a centerpiece vase.

Saturday, 03/15/25 5:30pm - 8:00pm Eastern. 3501 S. Tamiami Trail Sarasota, FL

Same fight, different decade. Almost like history keeps repeating itself when people refuse to learn. ACAB, anti-fascism forever, and Rage still speaks the truth. ✊️ #EGOPROOF

Last year I took part in a writing workshop called "Love letters to Gaza", organized by Even Minn and Raoni Muzho Saleh. The texts we wrote were then sent to Ashtar Theatre, to their call "Letters to Gaza". As a poet and a researcher interested in collective writing, it was an important event, and I will probably end up reflecting it later in my research.

The texts now been published:

And finally before I wrap up my posts of the murals (despite having many more photos) I have one more to share, which is the Declaration of Immigration mural by the Yollocalli Arts Reach youth program run by the National Museum of Mexican Art.
Despite it being worn and having graffiti added to it, it resonates just as much with the community and the milieu of today as it did when it was first unveiled. #Pilsen #murals #Chicago #ArtAsActivism #ArtAsResistance
