We need more militarization, more rules, less 1st Amendment protection and definitely more fear in our city streets. We need to bring back WALK RIGHT!

It’s rumored that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is looking into the possibility that hormones extracted from cockroaches could hold the key to cures for ailments as wide ranging as colds, flu, acne, anemia, and menstrual cramps, and ultimately make people immune to radiation.

On June 14, in NYC, a Trump’s Military Parade (Revisited) marched from Trump Tower to Bryant Park and joined the No Kings rally. With Trump masks and singing “Happy Birthday to me,” they mocked a corrupt, anti democratic agenda. Rain or shine, speak out & resist.

Rolling satire since '69: Using mobile sculptures, I've been able to turn the streets into stages, blending art with activism, and getting-outta-dodge when necessary.

This video is one of several I presented during my keynote address at the Art&Place conference.

I thought I was getting on a flight to Germany to deliver my keynote at the Art & Place conference (art-and-place.com). Instead, I wound up giving it via Zoom—from a prison cell. While symbolic, this was a reminder: dissent isn’t just a right. It’s a necessity.

Exclusive from the Joey Skaggs Vault!

Sept 22, 1968, Joey Skaggs took 60 bearded, beaded, long haired camera toting hippies sight-seeing to suburban Queens, giving the "squares" a taste of their own medicine. Skaggs called it his cultural exchange tour.
