Deeds is shifting how policy is consumed and understood by young people, while investing in the leadership of young artists of color as they share their own unique narratives and experiences. At Deeds, we know art is a powerful tool that can bring communities together and inspire them to action around important issues. This is why we created a quarterly zine, The Galvanizer, an art and policy project curated by our Changemakers. Deeds incorporates art to tell stories, raise awareness and inspire action. Since its launch in Spring 2019, each Galvanizer zine has focused on a different issue area, while emphasizing the intersections of reproductive rights with other issues of importance to gender and racial equity.
