Our Virtual Engagements serve to bridge, connect, and support the community of L.A. in the depths of a global pandemic and beyond.
we continue to provide primary resources in support for the ACCESSIBILITY of the arts and movement to all while reimagining what it means to bring Artivism within an online platform.
“CONTRA-TIEMPO certainly brings their energy through the screen, and that is really what we were hoping for with our virtual series. The workshop piece is so personal and approachable, too.”
Don’t Get it Twisted
In the wake of the summer 2020 civil rights uprisings, CONTRA-TIEMPO members made time to reflect, imagine, and discuss what it means to exist as an activist. In this latest chapter of the civil rights movement, there has been a move towards hiring a workforce that is more diverse in race, gender, sexuality, and religious practices. On the other hand, people have been accused of performative activism. What is the fine line between tokenizing and doing the work to include people from a variety of backgrounds, cultures, races, genders, etc.? Don’t Get it Twisted unpacks all of this and more. New episodes premiere on our Youtube channel every other week.
