John F. Kennedy said, “If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.”

Let April 19 become a day for #artactivism.

Artists of all disciplines: Make YOUR artistic vision for society very public.

Tech billionaires wield control over social media platforms with extensive, toxic influence, deepening societal divisions, spreading disinformation & reinforcing distorted beliefs. Resist! Those in the 99% have common interests, not with oligarchs. http://dlvr.it/TJJWtt

Murphy: "The destruction of our democracy is part of this story ... this is super unpopular, what they are doing. Nobody wants their healthcare to disappear ... so how do you get away with it? You try to destroy our democracy. You try to crush dissent. You threaten members of Congress with arrest."

Look at this leader. Lift her up.
Colorado's Rep Brittany Pettersen (D) flew cross-country with her one-month-old to vote against the GOP budget tonight. Dems ended up one vote short. Pettersen was part of an unsuccessful bipartisan push to allow new mothers to vote remotely. #copolitics
