First published 2018
An artist watches the 2016 election results with growing alarm. The outcome sparks something fierce inside them. They pick up their tools and begin creating protest art that captures the anger and hope of a divided moment. The work spreads across social media, connecting with others who refuse to accept the new reality quietly. Each piece becomes an act of defiance. The artist discovers that creativity can be a form of resistance, that making art is making change. Through bold images and unflinching honesty, they transform personal outrage into collective action. This is a story about finding your voice when the world feels broken, about the power of art to heal and mobilize.
