From musicians who use songs as a call to action to photographers who use images as protest, pop culture plays a critical role in activism. Participants will analyze different pop culture works and the “machines” creative folx have produced that we can all use to make a difference. They will then explore their own skills and interests to process collective anger, raise awareness, and let their voices be heard through crafted, personal social justice statements.
This PD is recommended for educators who work with grades 9–12 and are interested in integrating photography, activism, social justice, and writing into their curricula.
