Inciter Art | Fractured Atlas

Update from the Fractured Atlas Board

Written by Russell Willis Taylor | June 3, 2020

The Board of Fractured Atlas strongly condemns the structures of racism and bias that perpetuate inequities in the lives of people of color in communities across our country. Today we are reminded once again of the far-reaching and malignant impacts on the health, safety and economic opportunity of Black Americans. We re-commit now to eliminating structures of bias and oppression in our work. As we work to increase the economic, political, and social power of artists and creatives we join with others who see creative expression as part of a just society. 

As a nonprofit organization, Fractured Atlas's ability to contribute to other nonprofits engaging in direct support of the Movement for Black Lives is limited. However, each of the undersigned Board members have made a personal contribution to the grassroots organizations listed beside their names.

 

In solidarity,
