At what point do you choose to speak up, to stand for what is right? How do you make your voice heard? How does one respond to the tumultuous forces that shake our world every day?
Creon’s answer is oppressive political tactics. We, the youth of Thebes, choose a different path. We choose to make our voice heard in a way that is wholly unique. We choose to express ourselves in a way that is of our own making. From all parts of the world, youth have been creating art as a reaction against violence and the dark forces that threaten destruction, from within and without. It is through these forms and activities that we battle these forces and create community - a community of believers in the power of the right, and the need to fight for it when the occasion demands. Find Your Voice. Fight For The Right.
