TRACK: Pop-Ed Power: Intergalactic Teaching and Learning for Liberation / Rad Art: 2-D images
for 3-D movements
How can we use our art strategically, and our strategies artistically in transforming the landscape of our communities? This cohort of incredible artist-activists will discuss community organizing through the art they produce and distribute, and share specifically how popular education is a part of the their process and projects. They will show examples of their work by screening video clips, kicking rhymes and poetry, and projecting murals. There will also be examples of lessons and workshops that have been created around this art and a chance to help the artists create new learning tools using the art they present in the session! Last year, Invincible brought together a session focused on organizing through community studios and performance spaces. This year, we are continuing to build on that conversation that was started and focus on art as part of popular education-based organizing. Educators, organizers and cultural producers are all welcome to share in this cypher about the ways we can effectively weave together education, organizing, and cultural production in our daily lives and work.
