SUMMARY:The Art of the Protest: A Conversation with Dr. Dan Zipp
DESCRIPTION:Can one person really make a difference when standing against a system of oppression? Can one person ever truly create effective change\, acting against overwhelming power? Using real-world examples of different media\, Dr. Dan Zipp will explain different ways in which art has been used to creatively frame social movements\, to deeply resonate with different populations\, and to skillfully confront (internalized) dominant ideologies. Through art and our ability to express ourselves freely\, anyone can impact meaningful change.
