I revere that.

The Fundamentals #3 We Need Us
My three words above stress the interdependence of us all which I see in the work of artist John Lawry.
On August 18, 1914, Woodrow Wilson proclaimed American neutrality in response to war in Europe. Seeking enemies and war doesnt do any good.
On August 18, 1920, women secured the right to vote across America. Excluding half the population from democracy wasnt sustainable.

The Fundamentals #2 Penjajahan
The profound historical insights embedded in the wonderful art of Melburnian John Lawry has lead me to the following thoughts.
The heavy weight of Penjajahan or Colonialism destroys the so called powers.
The post colonial world has not recovered yet from all of the evils which were done in the name of imperial power both to those colonised and to the colonising nations themselves.
Freedom works for people.
Tyranny works for tyrants.
