Immersed myself in an art workshop this past week, held at a Franciscan Retreat Center. It was wonderful to be away and apart for a time, removed from the ongoing drama of politics and wokeness to enter into the freedom and joy of focusing on personal creative expression in a peaceful setting. With no Covid concerns in evidence, and most of the participants able to hold their differing political opinions in check, I felt like I'd stepped into another world. Or maybe the eye of the hurricane. Walking back into the swirl of Hunter's blow and his dad's bloviating, to face a wall of lies, distortions and theories that aren't a fit with my real world experience, is hard to do. I'm grateful for artists, cartoonists, writers, and thinkers with the courage, integrity, and fortitude to continue to stand strong and face things head on.

Dr Sowell writes a lot of wisdom in a small space and that line about social problems is about as succinct and pertinent as they come.
