Resistance Here Doesn't Mean Revolution. It Doesn't Mean Storming The Barricades. Resistance Means Using Art For The Things That It Does Best, Which Is To Create Human Portraits And Communicate Ideas And Forge A Climate Where People Of Different Races Or Classes Are Known To You Because They Make Themselves Known. In The Simplest Terms, Art Humanizes. It Opens The Circuit Of Empathy. And Once That Process Happens, It's That Much Harder To Think Of People As Part Of A Policy Or A Statistic. Art Reverses The Alienation That Can Creep Into Society.
