Puppets + Resistencia Project
The PUPPETS + RESISTENCIA PROJECT would be is new collaborative artwork by Jasmin Cardenas and William Estrada where we develop short public bilingual puppet stories exploring the effect of policing on communities of color. This project is inspired by the long history of community art making, popular education tools, Theater of the Oppressed exercises and El Teatro Campesino plays to inform and critically engage communities to discuss and organize people on issues that affect them in their neighborhood. The focus will be to inspire more discussions, generate new creative interruptions, and imagine collective actions towards abolishing the carceral system.
