Mission

More than a single story, inc. Seeks to create an environment of civic literacy in which bipoc+ writers, artists and arts activists discuss issues of importance to them in their own words and their own voices, and engage communities in those conversations. Our vision is to empower artists whose voices have not been recognized in the mainstream as a way to balance public discourse and provide a forum for cross-cultural understanding.
