Three Works by R. Trentham Roberts

Look Away

From R. Trentham: As the Supreme Court decides on abortion rights in Mississippi -- and beyond -- the title refers both to the lyrics of "Dixie" and the refusal to acknowledge that the methods of abortions past could return in the future.

 

Your Turn

New arrivals at these World War II extermination camps may have hoped that they could come out alive. But they had no chance, even if they were led to believe so.

 

Just Need the Right Bait

The allure of violent extremism -- in this case, the Ku Klux Klan "fishing" for recruits, hence the leaders and sinkers (painted as Klan hoods).
