Yo Yo Ma and Mark Boslough both have the same opinions when it comes to art in todays society. They both agree that it is severely important in todays society. Boslough expresses that  “Science is also under attack from the religious right, whose literal interpretation of the Bible supersedes scientific evidence, logical reasoning, and common sense.” He then continued to talk about “…but it now has an active campaign to remove scientifically validated subjects _ such as evolution _ from the classroom and have them replaced by their own unscientific opinions, such as creationism.” When it comes to Yo Yo Ma he takes the approach that arts should be included into the education system.  When he says this “the values behind arts integration-collaboration, flexible-thinking, and disciplined imagination- lead to the capacity to innovate.”  it really makes me think about the bigger picture , and I absolutely agree with opinion on how STEM can be transformed into STEAM.
