In Pennsylvania, other cuts. With less public transportation, people are needing to wait three hours to get their bus.
It is freedom, and information, that is being cut in China, and artists are at particular risk: once they know something, what will they do?
What will we do? Will the examples of Wisconsin and Egypt and Ai Weiwei urge us to question the decisions of our governments?
I think of flax. Sword-like leaves, fiber as strong as rope, sap used in soap. Inner shoots are likened to children, to be protected by the outer layers, the parents and grandparents.

I just heard that 500 teachers lost their jobs in one Texas school district alone.
