Soothing the Itch
A Guest Editor Series
on Arts Philanthropy and Cultural Justice
FEATURED POST
Prologue
by Conrhonda E. Baker
The past few months during which my fellow contributors and I crafted this issue have been marked by devastating wildfires, the loss of O’Shae Sibley, increased political tensions, and the never-ending deluge of information and digital distractions. That’s why I’ve curated this issue with a unique twist – an invitation to listen. While the pages await your eyes, our content creators’ words are equally eager to dance in your ears.
