"... to wrestle the earth from fools"

Patti Smith, poet, sister and Godmother of Punk, released the song People have the Power back in 1988. i had just started working and - along with many other great works of art - it sent me into a wonderful tailspin of questions and more questions about the state of things.

Twenty years later, in this fluid period in our history, this song haunts yet again. In many ways it's laser-sharp message is directed straight at us.



Watch it. Believe in it.

We have the power.
