And Babies? And Babies
A haunting and confrontational work, Matthew Day Jackson's *And Babies? And Babies.* draws its title from the chilling exchange that circulated in response to the My Lai Massacre, forcing viewers to reckon with the brutal realities of wartime atrocity and collective moral failure. The piece operates within Jackson's broader artistic inquiry into history, violence, and the darker currents of American identity. Its stark title functions almost as a complete narrative in itself, demanding an uncomfortable acknowledgment of human capacity for destruction.
