The Trump administration is gearing up to kick an estimated six million more people off of food assistance programs — including nearly two million children.

Priorities.

Timothee Chalamet, The Arts, and Funding Arts Education How one white man's stupid comments has led, and can lead, to more conversations about the state of the arts.

This is my latest essay on the recent convo around the arts, their “relevance”, & how we as a culture actually develop an appreciation for the arts.

As you can guess, it absolutely has to do w/how we fund arts education.

Hope you enjoy!

Poems like “Embattled With the Muses”, “Blank Page”, and “Trust the Journey” provide an honest look at the creative process and the brave souls who choose to engage it with joy, pain, frustration, triumph, love, and their being.

Never has it been more imperative that the writer uses their words to tell stories, speak truth to power, and share their creativity and humanity with the world.

This book, “I Write to Breathe” will inspire you to fall back in love with words and get back into those pages.

After considerable soul-searching, I feel compelled to withdraw from the BAFTA emerging talent judging panel. The organisation's handling of the unfortunate Tourette's N-Word incident last night at the awards was utterly unforgivable. I cannot and will not contribute my time energy and expertise to an organisation that has repeatedly failed to safeguard the dignity of its Black guests, members and the Black creative community. This is particularly unfortunate given that this year's cohort boasts some incredible Black talent, especially one of my favourite shows of 2025 "Just Act Normal". However, when an organisation like BAFTA, with its own long history of systemic racism, refuses to acknowledge the harm inflicted on both the Black and disabled communities and offer an appropriate apology, remaining involved would be tantamount to condoning its behaviour. I hope BAFTA leadership comprehend the damage they and the BBC have caused and take the necessary steps to ensure their production staff are inclusive enough to prevent such an issue in the future.
Yours sincerely, Jonte Richardson

This was my first time writing a wedding. I went a little insane with the research 😅. I now know way too much about 1940s playlists.
