The California Ethnic & Multicultural Archives (CEMA) and Las Maestras Center present a free and public lecture by Melanie Cervantes, artist and cultural worker. A co-founder of Dignidad Rebelde, a graphic arts collaboration that produces screen prints, political posters and multimedia projects that are grounded in Third World and Indigenous movements, Melanie will discuss her work as a visual artist, inspired by the people around her and her communities’ desire for radical social transformation.

CEMA holds the Dignidad Rebelde Graphic Art Collection, which includes eighty-eight social justice-themed prints and posters produced by the collective from 2002-2024.

This event may be photographed or recorded.
