Features from last week! 🖋️ A pen held to paper – Features from last week! 🖋️

A pen held to paper – inhale, exhale – release everything in your mind. Then your hand takes off, racing through the lines and unleashing all that has been building up like a weight pressing down, ever steady. The pen hits the paper, seeming to say, “Let it go.

U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar is just the newest victim of President Donald Trump’s relentless attack against citizens who don’t fit his ideas of what a ‘real American’ looks like. Homeland Security raiding Omar’s home, accusing her of committing immigration fraud and threatening to deport her not only reeks of this administration’s bias against immigrants but also of the Islamophobia that has plagued this nation for far too long.

While AI can replace certain jobs, replicate performances, and regurgitate content that feels uncannily human, it can never really replace the experience of what goes into creating art. The human connection felt when sharing it with others, or the beauty of being a witness to someone’s creative process.
