🎭 Artists in 2025: Democracy’s Signals, Sirens and Solace by Michael Rohd (link 🔗 to full article in the comments.) “Certainty is poisoning our civic body, being deployed as a manufactured ideological bond, and diminishing the value of curiosity as a civic virtue. And story, it has lost much of it’s singular power. I used to believe that the right story could unlock and open the potential for change. I used to think connection and persuasion were both reasonable goals for story. I now think we are post-persuasion. I’ve come to believe that without rigorous attention to source and context in the telling, story is seen not as connective, but as a persuasive tactic, and it acts as another divisive factor in a fractured landscape. ⁉️As artists, how might we intervene in the notion of certainty as a valid foundation for identity? ⁉️How might we remind each other that humility, generosity and curiosity are qualities to admire and emulate? ⁉️How might we remind those who are certain, that discovery is joyful, and certainty places that joy out of reach? ⁉️What creative acts of listening and imagination might we offer to make space for connection, to build trust, and to invite coalition? ⁉️How might we make certain that certainty itself does not move us at a pace, perhaps impossible to slow, in a direction from which we certainly can’t return?”

In this episode of "Conversations for the People," I got to sit down with Christopher Rivas, a dynamic storyteller, actor, author, and filmmaker, to explore how art and creativity can inspire positive social change, promote wellness, and challenge societal norms. Christopher opens up about his journey, his book "Brown Enough," and how he uses his diverse skills to disrupt traditional narratives around race, colorism, and identity.

On June 29th, I will give a speech on alternative art, more specifically alternative theater, and its relationship with hegemonic struggles. In the first part, I will devote my presentation to the negative position of alternative theater against the status quo and hegemonic orders. The second part will be about the positive aspect of this particular form of art in creating community under strict censorship and suppression. Finally, the last part is about conflictual aesthetics, which offer a critical form of aesthetics that criticizes the institution of art and finds more efficacy for both participants and performers by agitating.

Im a product of arts education. I firmly believe that arts education is transformative.
