(1/6) The Civil Rights Movement didn’t win by repeating the same protest—it won by adapting creatively under repression. What tactic do you already use that could be reimagined to be safer, more joyful, or harder to shut down? #CreativeResistance #ArtisticActivism #MovementStrategy

9/10 Fascism narrows what we can imagine. Anti-fascist creativity expands it.

Fascism narrows what we can imagine.

Anti-fascist creativity expands it.

If we can’t picture a future beyond repression, we can’t organize toward one.

8/10 That’s what Forging Anti-Fascist Futures is about.

That’s what Forging Anti-Fascist Futures is about.

Using imagination as a political tool.

Creating “screenshots” from futures that don’t yet exist — to loosen the grip of the present.

6/10 Artistic activism doesn’t just criticize what’s wrong. It lets us experience what could be right. It makes alternatives feel real, before they’re possible.

5/10 Once we allow ourselves, even briefly, to imagine a different world, we can no longer believe the present is the only possibility, and that crack in reality?

More wanted us to feel that another world was possible.

4/10 and yet... Utopia is a place that doesn't exist.

and yet

Utopia is a place that doesn’t exist.

The word “utopia” was invented five hundred years ago by the English writer and statesman Thomas More.

Created from the Greek words ou, meaning “not,” and topos, meaning “place.”

Utopia is a place which is, literally, no-place. But why create “no place”?

3/10 Utopia is a world far better than the one we live in now

Utopia is a world far better than the one we live in now: "it's a place far better than the world we live in now" "where everyone has enough to eat" "where care replaces fear" "all people are valued"
