Description

Artists and activists who identify as women, non-binary, trans, queer, Black, Indigenous, or People of Color only make up a fraction of contributors and content subjects in Wikipedia. Don't miss this panel of independent and avant-garde game designers, artists, and academics whose work specifically addresses the intersection of race, gender, and sexuality in digital art, design, and code.

Panel Discussion, 1:00-2:30 PM, Multi-Purpose Room Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, 2:30 - 5:00 PM, Secret Lab
