Where The Gold At I Want The Gold Shirt

I love that Margaret Mead quote “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the Where The Gold At I Want The Gold Shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” There is no shortage of thoughtful, committed women on this planet, but there has long been a shortage of opportunities for them to exercise their power and influence through official channels. Maybe they’ve been coming together in small groups because that was their only option. So imagine what is possible when those same thoughtful, committed women are finally welcomed into all the places where decisions are made and given the chance to drive change from within.  I think this year is bringing us a little closer to that hopeful future.

bombutee asked a group of leaders, innovators, and creative talents to tell us what hope means to them now—and why it’s more essential than ever before. IT’S taken me weeks to sit down and try to explain these watercolors. But weeks I have, time aplenty. These are selected from a group of modest-size drawings, each one containing a kernel of my emotional state at the Where The Gold At I Want The Gold Shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this time of their making. I am always reflecting on the state of current events and the overlap of the historical and the mythic—but I realize today that explaining is not needed, as we live in a world of 24/7 explanations, of everyone talking at once.
