Movement Makers - Powering Collective Action

The Monuments to Movements SpeakEasy conversation series features international thinkers and makers in dialogue about public art & collective action.

M2M lives inside the power of movements and movement makers – the multitudes of leaders and foot soldiers – who drive strategy and action. The March SpeakEasy features M2M collaborators who are envisioning collective action, inspiring the newly engaged and catalyzing progress across geographies. Together with change-making activists and organizers, we’ll discuss what powers the most vital movements of our time.

Participating panelists include Lawrence Bartley, prison reform activist and publisher for The Marshall Project, Gissou Nia, human rights lawyer and leader in the campaign to remove the Islamic Republic from the UN Commission on the Status of Women, Oswaldo Gomez, community organizer & vice president, Community Commission for Public Safety Accountability, and Teny Gross, activist and founder & executive director of the Institute for Nonviolence Chicago.
