At the beginning of August, Trump took to social media and informed the world he had instructed the Department of Commerce to immediately begin work on “a new and highly accurate CENSUS based on modern day facts and figures and, importantly, using the results and information gained from the Presidential Election of 2024.” Most notably, he wrote, “People who are in our Country illegally WILL NOT BE COUNTED IN THE CENSUS.” If Trump has his way, it will have significant repercussions on how Congressional districts could be drawn, even as Texas leads the pack and has already approved a new congressional map – leading to a very public walkout by Texas Senate Democrats and CA Gov Gavin Newsom's retaliatory threat to redraw California's congressional map. There's also a SCOTUS angle here, as the Supreme Court squashed the citizenship question pertaining to the 2020 census when it came up in 2019. Now, CRC has learned that some hefty lefty funding is going into an effort to push a narrative on the census that runs counter to the Trump administration's and is designed to last for the next 10 years to cover the 2030 census. And one prominent name in the mix is our old friend The Funders Committee for Civic Participation.

In 1912, the labor hymn "Bread and Roses" was sung by striking textile workers in Lawrence, Massachusetts. The song advocates for workers to receive “Bread”—the wages working people need to support their families, and “Roses”—the beautiful things that make life worth living, such as art, music, and nature. Over 100 years later, St. Louis-based arts organization Bread & Roses Missouri amplifies and elevates the voices of working people through art, performance and activism. Executive Director Emily Kohring will talk about how participation in creative experiences can be healing and transformative for working people and their families, and how they use theatre to highlight the stories of the working class and the Labor Movement that are too often left out of our cultural narrative. She'll discuss the intersection of the arts and advocacy, and how justice-focused arts organizations like Bread & Roses are navigating these challenging times.
