In Northampton, artists’ feud over Mayflower print leads to fallout after biennial is canceled
When members of the arts council logged into a meeting in late September, few could have imagined a retired librarian’s artwork was about to torpedo their upcoming biennial, a popular juried show at the local library. Continue reading →

I couldn’t access the article.
"Genocide" artwork in question.
Rest of the article is behind a paywall so I wasn't able to read it.
This may work using cut and paste:
“ As much as the tense of the 100 minutes before it fell into the ocean, the ocean sanded over the next ten minutes were a classic American drama from 2021, a distinctly American drama, it turned out to be a long-blue affair, it that arose in the next three weeks, pitting liberals and progressives against them amid charges of censorship, white supremacy, and privilege.”
Huh?
That story sure is a bowl of spaghetti.
Couldn’t keep the players straight.
The words in the article are English, yet the syntax clearly is not…
Translation from woke speak:
“The woke zombies have starting chewing on each other’s corpses in the name of “civility”.”
Bwahahahahahaha.

This looks like a computer-generated “news” article, which was then run thru an English-to-Norwegian translation then back again to English. Much of it makes no sense whatsoever. that, or the writer was on drugs.
The article is unreadable.

The comments were the best part. I love seeing progressives eating their own!
Basically it’s the left eating their own. Where’s “giant popcorn bag guy”?
Words are our friends. It’s cruel to torture them like that. The ones in the headline may never recover
The woke religion is relatively new, and religions at the early stage have dozens of sects all fighting to become the “true religion”.
In order to make that claim they must pound the table and angrily denounce all others as heretics.
Great spectator sport!
(This is usually resolved by armies—the winners are declared “the one true faith”.)
The article is horribly written. Difficult to easily discern the meaning of long run on sentences.
A brief explanation of the controversy would have helped.
lol -
“Madsen, who started making art about 20 years ago, traditionally chose more anodyne subjects for her work, such as landscapes and maps. But that began to change about a year and a half ago, as the pandemic tightened its grip and the national discussion turned to race.
“The story of the Mayflower is a story of white supremacy,” she said in an interview, describing how she’d incorporated an image of the Mayflower embroidered by her mother into the contested artwork. “That was a story I wanted to tell.”
So, old white women leftist, gets cancelled for making art that hates on white people... because she’s white - even though her message is in complete support of communist lunacy they all want to promote.
These people are all retarded and looney tunes.
The bipocs they claim to be promoting and “giving voice to” (because of their white privilege they can bestow this power) don’t CARE about this bs.
Looks like a classic case of “This is why we can’t have nice things”
Lol
I have no idea what the article is talking about or trying to tell me.
This article was written by, and for, illiterate nut jobs.
