Some people feel that it's controversial if I say that because my dad is known as a political artist. But I don't really believe that he was a political artist.

But I think he was unique in being able to do that.
For me, what is political is very personal. Politics are not this abstract idea. Laws are the rules that dictate how we live our lives. What we eat is political. How we dress is political. Where we live is political. All of these things are influenced by political decision-making, and it's important to be part of the process.

you walk with political steps
on political ground.

There are people with an explicit political bent complaining about people having political agendas while nominating stories with political agendas. Is it political to try to be diverse?
