“What we need to do is what our elders did, our ancient people did, which was pull back to the roots.” -- Nicolas Linares, referring to ancient medicinal and agricultural technologies.

MJN members, Ernest Verrett and Anjali Deshmukh, were glad to promote 34 Ave Open Streets Coalition, Queens Climate Project, and NY Metro Climate Reality Project at the Queens Botanical Garden for their Climate and Art Festival on April 27! (Photo by Ernest Verrett.)
We're excited to announce Street Works, a platform collective members are building for artists who practice co-creation in public spaces. This is one way in which we hope to make justice normal in a cultural asset ecosystem that has not not served justice. (Image: Art: “Bending the Universe,” by Anjali Deshmukh.

What if justice were normal? What and who will it take to imagine new habits, processes, and structures that default to loving care, anti-bias, pro-Earth, and solidarity?
We’re grateful for the support from the Racial Equity Asset Lab (the REAL) to design and launch MJN’s podcast Into the Record, as part of our Narrative Change work.
