Funk God Meets Punk God!

Interview with Artist-Activist Candace Mercer

Candace Mercer is a community activist, artist, and writer who has been involved in activism for over 40 years. In this podcast, Candace and I discuss the benefits of forming an intergenerational female friendship over Twitter, finding common ground in contemporary activist culture around gender and shifting cultural issues, and examine how acceptance and healing can be found in creativity. We share examples of our advocacy designs and online art shops, and explore how the traditionally conservative value of personal responsibility can promote transcendence over growing left-leaning nihilism.
