As I was putting together this issue, I mused about how creativity is an essential part of the street activism that many of us will be partaking in during the coming months and, yes, years. The creative spirit arises in the political insights, the turn of phrase, the artistic representations, the chants, and, as always, in the music. Google “I can’t keep quiet DC Women’s March” and you’ll find a kick-ass new anthem for this generation.
