Travel broadens the mind. Through it we see and hopefully learn that 'Our Way' isn't the only way and sometimes not the best way.

How very refreshing to be in a country that never gave up fighting for its democracy. I say that with great admiration, but also with envy and wishful thinking. I hope one day we will be described similarly.

Another great - on the nose - post Steve. Enjoy Chile. Although I travelled to Santiago some time ago now, I found it a welcoming place and its people gracious. M

I have heard Thomas Hampson sing several times in person. He is incredible. Thank you for this. Safe travels and fun adventures to you.

Chile has been on my mind of late, and I envy your being able to experience a city like Santiago! Thomas Hampton’s voice is powerful, and so is your work, Stephen.

Chile is one of the countries on my "time to escape the country to this place" list. Enjoy the wonderful sites!

Steve Brodner and Heather Cox Richardson are keeping me sane through this hellscape.

If seen, strong visual or verbal political art has a lasting effect, but often it is recognized by those to whom it is addressed and they, regardless party affiliation, take whatever steps are needed to keep it in the dark.
