“Hope Rising.” Keep hope alive! 2011, Monotype/chine collé/collage, 18”x24” #ArtAdventCalendar #monotypemixedmedia #monotype #birdsinart #hope #artshare #nonviolence #wagingnonviolence #collage #originalart #birds 🪶#womenarestrong #changetheworld #trumpetvine #patterns
“Hope Rising” by Anita Heckman. A back view of a strong woman’s head and outstretched arms. Red and yellow trumpet vine flowers and leaves emerge from the woman's shoulder and are entwined around her arms and to her sides. She has brownish skin with gold swirls, and black braided hair. An open fan emerges from her head and hair. The fan floats in front of her. Its thirteen folds have intricate flower patterns of many hues. A bright blue and green hummingbird with outstretched wings and tail is at the top center. It flies upward toward open flowers and the sky. The top background is a road map with a large light green infinity symbol (like the movement of a hummingbird’s wings). The bottom background is a nautical map with large round compasses facing upward. Colors and patterns are everywhere. Created in 2011 in solidarity with the Arab Spring pro-democracy nonviolent resistance movements in the Middle East. Massive numbers of people rose up nonviolently to demand freedom, human rights, women’s rights and an end to repressive regimes. Monotype/chine collé/collage, 18”x24”

I love this--

"People tend to go along with majorities. ... Spreading messages of hope can make people more hopeful. And hope is the cure to nihilism, and nihilism is the fuel of authoritarianism."

The 14 June 2025 No Kings mobilization ranked among the largest protests in U.S. history, transforming mass civic resistance into a structural counterweight to Trump’s authoritarian consolidation. #Trump #NoKings #CivilProtest #MassMobilization #InstitutionalAccountability #WagingNonviolence
New data shows No Kings was one of the largest days of protest in US history
The historic number of No Kings protesters and their expansive geographic spread are signs of a growing and durable pro-democracy movement.

And so many more movements you can join. You are not alone.
Plain text against an off-white background reads: Reminder: Social media isn't a void. Violent rhetoric can lead to real-world consequences—from flagged accounts to a knock-and-talk, and others you won't see. You don't have to agree with the system to remember it exists. There are better tools for change. Please use them. [Bolded] In most cases, you don't have to fight back to fight. #DoNotObeylnAdvance #MaliciousCompliance #JoinTheResistance People have plans. Join them. Organize. Don't go it alone. And no—no one killed the #lawyers. Talk to them. Know the consequences before you act.
