Jody and I spent a long weekend in Pittsburgh, at the National Conference on Higher Education in Prison. On a walk early this morning, I passed two paired scenes which I thought might have some resonance for you all pondering the "arts of freedom." The first is the Carnegie Library, the second the Schenley Park Bridge, now covered with "locks of love." Which better figures "freedom"? The gift of the "richest man in the world" to those with less, or the sign of commitment between partners?
