Because we know that the ability to sustain life (sustainability)

comes from the capacity to CREATE, we appreciate all living creatures for their amazing existence. Yet we need to love and care for our artist, who are the spearheads of

all civilizations; past, present and future.  

​

“Every artist, every scientist, every writer must decide now where he stands. He has no alternative. There is no standing above the conflict on Olympian heights. There are no impartial observers. The battle front is everywhere. There is no sheltered rear.

​

The artist must take sides. He must elect to fight for freedom or for slavery. I have made my choice. I had no alternative. The history of this era is characterized by the degradation of my people. Despoiled of their lands, their culture destroyed, they are in every country save one denied equal protection of the law, and deprived of the rightful place in the respect of their fellows.

​

Again I say, the true artist cannot hold himself aloof. The legacy of culture from our predecessor is in danger. It is the foundation upon which we build a still more lofty edifice. It belongs not only to us, only to the present generation – it belongs to posterity- and must be defended to death”

Paul Robeson
