    Sharah and Fight Back Forward Collaboration

    Sharah led with a passion for empowering the community to tell their own stories outside the constraints of social media, digital censorship, and uncontrolled information sharing. Through collage, accessible and sustainable materials, popular education, and collaborative storytelling, Sharah supported the Fight Back Fight Forward campaign, enabling its members to take the fight against fascism into their own hands.

    The Fight Against Fascism Continues

     

    Sharah understands that our current fight against fascism is part of a long struggle, particularly for Black, Brown, and other historically marginalized communities. Sharah empowered the Fight Back Fight Forward campaign to carry these conversations forward with their base in engaging and creative ways.
