Call to Service Him
WTF’nFF?!?
I caught Glenn Beck’s discussion of ∏eh iW∅n©DM‘s “Service Corps,” about which we have heard little but which seems to be coming along apace.
*shivers*
Then I run across this:
Backed by the full weight of President Barack Obama’s call to service and the institutional weight of the NEA, the conference call was billed as an opportunity for those in the art community to inspire service in four key categories, and at the top of the list were “health care” and “energy and environment.” The service was to be attached to the President’s United We Serve campaign, a nationwide federal initiative to make service a way of life for all Americans. ...
[Interesting details and research - worth the *click*—C]
[final para:] ...I leave you with a few statements made by the NEA to the art community participants on the conference call. “This is just the beginning. This is the first telephone call of a brand new conversation. We are just now learning how to really bring this community together to speak with the government. What that looks like legally?…bare with us as we learn the language so that we can speak to each other safely… “
