AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

I stand in support of equality. Basic rights are ours to express as equals. Access to our own expression is mandatory. If it doesn't exist, it must be created! If it exists, it must be utilized! If it is ignorantly withheld, noise needs to be made! If the noise isn't clear, spell it out! If no one can read it, do it anyway! What is right is your right! What doesn't serve us, needs removal! Community functions in unity, and unity is the reciprocity of elements. Love is a gift, and respect is earned. Love is earned, but respect and honor precede it, or at least part of its' ingredients. Am I my sybling's keeper? Yes I am. Yes you can.

Take the permission to be from inside, and share that with whoever you like. Shine!

Raising our glasses in celebration!
