Design Action Collective

For those of you attending Netroots Nation 2026 in Philly, don't miss the "Designs on Democracy: Media Makers Resisting Fascism" panel happening Thursday June 4 at 10:30am featuring our very own Sabiha Basrai!

The political terrain has shifted and the stakes are high. How can we win the battle of the story in this moment of authoritarian consolidation? As graphic designers and media makers, how can we learn from past movements, and develop strategic visual communication to win campaigns? Join us for a panel discussion on tools, practices, and case studies. As people of color, women, and immigrants, we will reflect on opportunities and challenges we face in doing this work.

Featuring:

Sabiha Basrai, Art Director/Worker-Owner, Design Action Collective
Anthony Rogers-Wright, Policy Fellow, Movement for Black Lives
Yash Mori, Owner and Principal, Mori Strategies
Candice Dayoan, Moderator, Political Creative Director

Design Action worked with Transgender Gender-Variant & Intersex Justice Project (TGIJP) to design and produce a website with a light page load to serve their community members who often have limited access to high-speed quality internet access.
