        <Desc>Arts &amp; Culture: We launched the Threads of Justice, a project in which we asked 12 Asian American artists, designers, and other creatives in Georgia to create publicly displayed art that calls for change, unity, and power building amongst AAPIs and other communities of color. With repurposed denim jackets as their medium, the artists explored what it means to be Asian in the American South, weaving the stories of our communities into the rich tapestry of social justice that exists in Georgia.</Desc>
