Dana Gioia, Chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts, visited Zócalo to discuss arts education. Something happens, he says, when an individual actively engages in the arts—even simply reading a novel—that awakens both a heightened sense of identity and civic awareness.
Fascinating, just come across Dana Gioia . . .

one of the leading nations of the world not producing enough readers...this trend is getting more disturbing by the minute. I surely hope somehow someway we can still hold on to our innovative edge and not fall behind the competition. That would be devastating.
