About the Event

This online panel discussion held on Zoom with Cynthia Tobar, current Racial Justice artist-in-residence at KODA, artist Julia Justo and cultural organizer/oral historian Rochelle Kwan will feature creatives who affect personal change through their socially engaged art and storytelling practices to center immigrant workers' stories of struggle for labor rights.
