Culture, politics, and verdicts of taste curated by a half-conscious distraction against dissertation reading and writing.

Voces De Cambio

An interesting vernacular visual/literacy project:

"Voces de Cambio (Voices of Change) is an extraordinary after-school program for teenage girls in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala. Since 2006 the program has used writing and still photography to help teenage girls explore issues such as discrimination, gender equality, youth leadership, and civic engagement."



(Another instance of the NGO-ification of empowerment politics?)
