Pioneer Works, Creative Time, and The Yes Men are proud to announce WTF Do We Do Now?, a one-day gathering with open forums, town hall meetings, and small-group dialogues. Guest speakers will include Frances Fox Piven, Avram Finkelstein, and Molly Crabapple; others will be confirmed shortly.
Back in 2007, after seven long hard years of Bush, RNC protests, the Patriot Act, and the so-called “War on Terror,” a few hundred activists and artists gathered to ask: What Do We Do Now?
Ten years later, we pose a similar but even more urgent question. WTF Do We Do Now? will be a moment for creative activists and politically-inclined artists to reflect on a year of bad politics, and to gather energy, develop clarity, and make plans for the long fight ahead. We’ll come out of the day with calls for action that make real sense in today’s political landscape—one that’s volatile and dangerous, but also full of unexpected opportunities for progressive change.
We welcome you to bring (or seek) clarity and strategy on the issues you care about, as well as new ways to take care of yourself and your friends.
