The Freedom Encyclopedia, 2025

As a former educator, Frances Cavanah’s quote from the Freedom Encyclopedia: American Liberties in the Making resonated with me.

 

"Education, Thomas Jefferson once said, is "the only sure reliance of our liberty" and no nation can expect to be both "ignorant and free." For voters to make the wise decisions necessary if they were to govern themselves successfully, he was convinced that education must be provided for all the citizens."

 

This work was created during the self-initiated and directed Disposition Residency. This residency has two rules: I can utilize anything in the warehouse before it sells, and all creations must occur in the warehouse or within a 500-foot radius outside of it. I am also allowed to bring in items that did not originate at the warehouse.
