About This Spreadsheet
7
Forming part of a larger collection of anti-racist tools and series of actions initiated by Design as Protest (DAP), and following the lead of the Arts Organisations on BLM list (organised by Layemi Ikomi and hosted on The White Pube website), "The List" is intended to remind architecture and design organisations of their declarations of support (or lack thereof) for the Black Lives Matter movement and its objectives. The entities listed here have either: 1. NOT made a statement; 2. Made a social media post; 3. Made a statement(s); 3. Made an action plan; 4. Carried out an action(s); 5. Have a relationship with projects/people/institutions that run contrary to their recent statements or mission, or 6. Any combination of these listed. View the full announcement of The List on Failed Architecture's website here. This is completely volunteer-run and a constant work-in-progress, and we invite you to reach out and contribute!
