Cultivating leaders in creative industries is how we thrive today and in our shared futures.
We are LIBERATORY - committed to defining new social constructs and rejecting all forms of oppression.
We are CELEBRATORY - embracing Black creative joy in all its glorious manifestations.
We are COLLABORATIVE - sharing knowledge, resources, labor, and insight to bring new diasporic creativity into the world.
We are COMMUNITY - knowing that we thrive more wholly in solidarity than alone.
We are ACTIVE - embodying the spirit of making over all else.
We are ACTIVISTS - showing up, speaking up, and demanding equity through and for our work.
We BELIEVE in ourselves and in the possibilities we can bring to life through art and design.
