At State of the Art we strongly believe Black Lives Matter and stand firmly against injustice and abuse of any kind. This week we revisit our conversation with social-activist, Glenn Cantave. Originally recorded in November 2019, Glenn shares with us his personal story into activism, how and why he began working "outside of the system", and how his nonprofit, Movers & Shakers, employs AR to highlight the narratives of oppressed communities.
