As an artist, Dan has always identified with the marginal, the rebels, those at the margins of society. Traditionally these characters have been artists, musicians, filmmakers, and writers. Since the dawn of woke culture however, where today’s “artists” march in lockstep with the dominant politically correct corporate news and political space, these marginal characters have taken a different look. Today’s rebels are moms, families, the canceled, those that dare to speak their mind and run counter to mainstream narratives.
These are the people captured in “Rebels, Rogues, and Outlaws.” This is not just a portrait book, it is also a historical document of the brave souls audacious enough to stand up against a ceaseless and powerful battering of politicians, woke social media tyrants, school boards, editorial pages, and polite society in general. This book is my small attempt to honor these people, who show us, day in and day out, what real courage is.
