Welcome to Part Three of the Navigating Artivism Collection. We are further pondering on how Artivists thrive in an economic system built on racial capitalism. And how Artivists reconcile and navigate capitalist practices when trying to subvert them. In this episode, Phinees Robert and Tanya Byker join us to ponder!
