We have been collaborating with Obey for over a decade now on the most important movements of our time, and as we look to the year ahead, there are few greater than protecting our democracy. Decisions will be made around the world on every continent next year that could tip the scales from empowered populations to authoritarian rule. In the U.S., we're not immune. We're entrenched in a culture war that is pouring gasoline on mis and disinformation campaigns, fueling voter suppression and voter purges. Ongoing gerrymandering works openly to assure entire communities have their political voice silenced.
This print sale will fund photographers and photo based artists to build projects exposing threats to democracy in the runup to the 2024 elections. This group will do more than just bear witness: they will use their art to help safeguard democracy for all, not just for some.
