Weekend
Four years ago, on the weekend before the presidential inauguration, we launched Drawing in a Time of Fear & Lies, a series of images and texts that appeared every Saturday for two years. 
The title was derived from a quote by Malcolm X: “I know some of you are afraid to listen to the truth—you have been raised on fear and lies. But I am going to preach to you the truth until you are free of that fear.”
Nearly 56 years after Malcolm’s violent death, truth is splintered and fear has filled in the cracks. The inauguration on Wednesday, 14 days after an attempted coup, can’t come quickly enough.
