On Sunday, December 9th, artists put the finishing touches on their murals as the first phase of the Central Square Mural Project came to a close. Since the summer of 2017, nine new murals have been painted in Central Square as part of a campaign to add works of public art to the neighborhood. With themes ranging from feminism to immigration, the exhibitions help to celebrate Central Square’s diversity and to revitalize old works of street art.

The much-anticipated continuation of the Rocky/Creed franchise has finally arrived and I can honestly say that it did not disappoint. As the eighth film in the 40-year-old franchise, Creed II builds upon the characters and stories of the older films in a way that we haven’t seen before. It tells the story of Adonis Creed, the illegitimate son of former heavyweight champion Apollo Creed, who was killed in the ring by Ivan Drago in Rocky IV.

From the election of far-right nationalist Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil to the retrenchment of the Chinese state to the institutional abuses here in the United States, 2018 was a bad year for democracy. So too were 2017, 2016, and, arguably, 2015. In fact, most historians agree that since the economic recession in 2008, democracy itself has been going through a recession of its own.
