As two white women we know we need to be researching & listening more & supporting action which will challenge racism in all its forms. We have been reflecting on how we can be more proactive to ensure we are supporting & amplifying black creatives through our platform (Thread👇)

Catch @michelleturton's talk today at @designfestbrum! We joined her to go doodling around the world during one of our lockdown events, so it will be great to see how the Digital Nomads developed their drawing sessions, bringing lots of fun and joy in crazy times 💙
Today is the day. At 12.00pm I'll be talking at @designfestbrum about my journey through the 2020 lockdowns with the Digital Nomads drawing sessions. Expect travel photos and neon, lots of neon. 💖🎟🎉📍#BDF2022 #illustration
