It is not often that I can speak with someone in the middle of a historical event. For a start they are usually far more concerned with the maelstrom going on around them to take time out to talk about things. Yet Omish is reflective, perhaps because he is an artist, maybe because he is a philosopher, and in part because as an activist, he is aware of the need to spread the word, lest someone else spread lies instead.

Omish has also shared with us some of his art and I am extremely grateful to him for doing so.

Thank you, Omish, for your time, and good luck in your activism.

Enjoy!
