Newspace Center for Photography, in collaboration with BARK, will host a community discussion on the pointed uses of images in environmental activist campaigns.

How to organizations and community groups utilize images to forward social change? How are they manipulated or staged to align with a campaign agenda? When does the image cross over to the realm of propaganda, and what are the implications to activists?
