Injustice Still Marches On


Parade is A Reminder That Injustice Still Marches On

"Parade," written by Alfred Uhry with music and lyrics by Jason Robert Brown, dramatizes the real-life story of Leo Frank, a Jewish factory manager in 1913 Atlanta, Georgia, who was falsely accused and convicted of murdering 13-year-old Mary Phagan, one of his workers. The musical lays bare the antisemitism, media hysteria, and racial manipulation that led to Frank’s conviction and eventual lynching.

Cosplay As Protest: A Tiny Art Show

This year is about pushing myself creatively. I’ve always been drawn to art. I sketch in notebooks, shoot photos, and experiment with paint, but I never fully called myself an artist. The title felt like something you had to earn, and I wasn’t sure I had. So when I submitted work to the Pretty Darn Small: A Tiny Art, Art Show at Hardy & Nance Studios, I was nervous because the pieces were both personal and political. I wondered how people would respond to artwork that addressed police brutality, gun violence, patriarchy, and sexuality. Would they get it? Would they feel uncomfortable? Or would they totally reject it? But I knew that I had to just put the work out there and allow people to respond as they saw fit.

Surrounded yet isolated, his cynicism and loneliness foreshadow the greater injustices that are soon to unravel his world completely.
