An act of creativity is, by definition, an act of defiance against the current reality.
Is it possible for a single song to spark a revolution? Can a novel written decades ago still inspire us to believe in a better future? And what happens when a Superbowl halftime show challenges the status quo?
Artists have long used their work to inspire real societal change, often in the face of a political regime determined to suppress their creativity.
Because an act of creativity is, by nature, a rebellion. And bringing something new into the world, something that defies the existing systems of power, oppression, or injustice - that is what this episode of The Kayse Melone Show is about.
In this episode, we’ll talk about Kendrick Lamar’s recent Superbowl halftime show, as well as 5 other artists whose work challenged the establishment and inspired the rest of us to believe in something better than authoritarianism or injustice.
This is the Art of Resistance.
