A reflection on artEquity’s founding and early years, centered on Carmen’s leadership journey and the values that guided the organization’s creation. This conversation includes Michael Robertson, Leslie Ishii, Mica Cole, and Carmen Morgan.
Over the last 10 years, artEquity has grown from a “one-time workshop” to a powerful supporter of the needs of our creative community. artEquity has cultivated spaces for connecting, building deeper racial analysis, and supporting BIPOC leaders—especially Black leaders—in shaping a more just and sustainable field. This series of conversations brings together members of the artEquity community who have guided, witnessed, and benefited from that collective work. Anchored by the vision and leadership of Carmen Morgan, these dialogues reflect on artEquity’s first 10 years: what has emerged, what has evolved, and what continues to inspire and challenge us as we imagine what comes next.
