Announcing IconicoXchange: A New Podcast About Creating Change

Iconico is proud to announce the creation of our first podcast series: IconicoXchange! In a world of pandemics, online organizing, and remote work, we wanted provide a space for connecting with incredible leaders who work at creating change in the world. 

Our official launch will be the first week of September 2020 for this labor of love, where our founder, Luis Avila has a candid conversation with organizational and inspirational leaders about what the work means in this new world, how they're dealing with trying to create change when old tactics aren't as effective as they used to be, and what they see for the future change-makers. 

Here are the first episodes coming up:

• Mijente: Shaping Meaning in the world with Marisa Franco, Latinx rights advocate, community organizer, co-founder and director of Mijente, an online organizing tool for Latinx and Chicanx activists.
