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.

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!
