M21 is the U.N. International day for the elimination of racial discrimination. We had an event at UVic. Here are some photos. The panel was on sexual identity and it’s various intersections with racial identity. This event was organized SOCC but antidote was co-organizing or perhaps endorsing it. Uh. We partnered with SOCC.
The 4th unlabel fashion happened on Sunday March 21st. We had a great time de-constructing fashion, discussing important issues that face us and of course, re-creating clothing!
This year we had several interactive workshops which included: brooch making, sewing, an interactive media station, and an informative workshop in which we deconstructed popular images found in print media. And we finished with a speak out runway, in which everyone had the opportunity to share what they re-created and anything they learned that day before strutting down the runway. What an empowering way to end a fantastic day with our antidote family!
Photos to follow soon!
A special thanks to our sponsors:
Shelbourne Fairway Market, Shelbourne Tim Hortons, Market on Yates and Romeo’s on Hillside
We invite you to bring a peice of clothing from home that you would like to re-create (we will have extras if anyone needs).
Looking forward to a fun filled day!!
