MODA: I Dissent: Amplifier Talks About Designing for Change
November 2, 2020 @ 6:00 pm
Free2020 has been a big year. Like many people, it’s had us at MODA wondering how we can do more to build a just and equitable society. Part of our journey has been listening to and learning from others that have been designing change for years, something we’d like to continue doing with our community from the safety of our virtual version of The Design of Dissent.
On December 2nd we will be hearing from Cleo Barnett, Executive Director, of Amplifier.org, a major partner, sponsor and source of content for Design of Dissent, as she shares her journey in activism, discuss how collaboration between artists and community organizations can amplify voices and activist work, and inspire us to deepen our own commitment to a better future.
Now, more than ever, we need Changemakers like Amplifier.org. Now, more than ever, is the time to dissent.
This event is free and will be moderated by Aileen Farshi.
