What does solidarity really look like?
"It's imagining that there is no 'us' and 'them.' It's 'I am here with you because I see you as valuable as me.'" -Michelle Alexander, author of @thenewjimcrow

"We were encouraged to stretch our creative muscles to tell stories about incarceration, environmental racism and solidarity. It’s an innovative way to reach new audiences and to remind everyone that we’re connected by our common experiences." ––Lori Knight

"And best yet, Futuro is interested in exploring new ways to tell stories by integrating fictional and non-fictional podcasts with animation – the @weimagineus project was an embarrassment of riches for my colleagues and me." ––Lori Knight
