This week features a radical collaborative project called “Remember | Resist | Redraw“ with works by artists and writers committed to promoting art, activism, and alternative history in Canada through posters.

These gorgeously radical posters are make marvel at the creative ways in which people are resisting dominant narratives and engaging in the power of co-learning outside of schools.
