Who are you encouraging to be creative?
This article linked below has some wonderful quotes by President John F Kennedy.
It says, "Kennedy called for the independence of artists: “If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him,” for “in a democratic society the highest duty of the writer, the composer, the artist, is to remain true to himself and to let the chips fall where they may.”
“We need a creative America today,” Kennedy argued. Creativity means new ideas and leadership; otherwise, a people can only be enslaved: “They have no vision, no imagination to beckon them, no direction in which to move—save where the pressures of the moment may push them.”
****
This is me again: I mourn the fact that our youth are not encoutaged to read, to learn, to discover and to create. Our children should be encouraged to write poetry and essays, to paint and to sculpt, and to write music. As writers ourselves, we should be prepared to make sure that the future of our world inccludes creative works by humans, not just AI.
