 In this time of global health crisis the Media Institute for Social Change continues to create work that explores social issues.  We are working remotely on the projects we started earlier in the year to use media to bring about positive social change, and tackle issues of social justice.  We hope that during this challenging time you are staying healthy and safe, and  following the suggested protocols to preserve your well being and also protect the common good.
