I initially painted this image to portray the idea of disclosure. What the image lacks in originality, it makes up for in symbolic clarity.

The thing is, Disclosure isn’t about information. The US government won’t be bequeathing the public with astonishing revelations that aren’t readily available. Disclosure is an admission to the public for having withheld knowledge of the phenomena from the nation’s citizens since at least 1947. Researchers, experiencers, abductees, and those who have sought to educate themselves want vindication. We want to be recognized for not being gullible, delusional, crackpots. But don’t think for a second that the US government is being bent over a knee and spanked by the upcoming report. They’ve had plenty of time to prepare for this. To maintain order they have planned the narrative that’s currently unfolding. Remember, all branches of the military have one job above all else; to protect the nation they serve. The harsh reality is that the military cannot defeat the phenomenon. This is because the other intelligences are not only technologically far superior; they’re not hostile. If they were, you wouldn’t be reading this post. But in order to exist on taxpayer dollars, the military must always maintain their message; be afraid. Stoking fear is the oldest weapon for controlling the populus; Fear the darkness. Fear the witch. Fear dark skin. Fear poverty. Fear homosexuality. Fear the immigrant. Fear the other.

It is not up to the government to save us by admitting what the informed already know. It is not up to scientists who sit on the throne of their own hubris. It’s not about waiting for the die-hard skeptics to change their minds. It is up to us keep the conversation going. It is up to us to share the data. It is up to us to support the honest advocates.
The fact is that Disclosure has already begun. It’s up to the rest of the world to accept this movement or step aside. Copernicus wasn’t around long enough to witness the acceptance that the Earth orbits the Sun. Darwin and Wallace weren’t around long enough to witness the acceptance of natural selection. Historically paradigm shifts move at the glacial pace of generations. And this fundamental change we’re talking about is a genuine revision to the shared perception of reality. Don’t expect everyone to be convinced no matter what the government says.

Honestly though, this is an exciting time to be alive. Even though there’s plenty of disagreement in the diverse community as to the true nature of the multi-faceted phenomenon, we can choose to stand united on the mountains of evidence that we are not alone in the universe. Let the new guard in the government do their damndest to control the narrative. For us the informed and the dedicated, let’s continue to speak truth to power. We are Disclosure.

I had a lot of fun with this, given free reign by the owners to come up with an image. I sketched out a lot of ideas, ultimately landing on a subject that would be relatable, visually elegant, and provoke the joyful experience of reading. As screen printing has requirements that don’t jive with my painting, I adapted lines and shape for strokes of paint. Drop by Coolidge Corner if you’re in the Boston area.
