Quote of the Week

How are we meant to feel about art that we both love and oppose? What if we are in the unusual position of having helped create it? Erasing history is a dangerous road when it comes to art -- change is essential, but so, too, is remembering the past, in all of its transgression and barbarism, so that we may properly gauge how far we have come, and also how far we still need to go.
--Molly Ringwald, "What About 'The Breakfast Club'?: Revisiting the Movies of My Youth in the Age of #MeToo," The New Yorker, April 6, 2018
