Creativity Squared

What if the key to our future lies not in what we know, but in what we dare to imagine together?

For our 60th episode, Creativity Squared has partnered with the Twin Cities Innovation Alliance (TCIA) for a special three-part data justice series. The intention of these conversations is to invite the audience to reimagine our relationship with the future.

TCIA is a coalition of cross sector stakeholders building and developing problem-solving ecosystems in collaboration with communities.

These interviews feature the distinguished speakers from TCIA’s 2024 conference Data 4 Public Good (D4PG). D4PG taps into the collective power of community-based changemaking through technology, democracy, and justice. The timely and important themes from these interviews include co-powering, digital justice, data privacy, A.I. in education, Afrofuturism, and the power of narrative for social change.

Today’s episode guests include:

⭐️ Aasim Shabazz - Changemaker, Innovator, and Co-Founder of TCIA

⭐️ Marika Pfefferkorn - Disruptor, Builder, and Co-Founder of TCIA

⭐️ Dr. Cierra Kaler-Jones - Narrative Power-Builder & Executive Director, Rethinking Schools

⭐️ Dr. Chelsea Barabas - PhD Researcher, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

⭐️ Alicia Ranney - Vice President of Data & Evaluation, Metropolitan Alliance of Connected Communities

⭐️ Cassandra Hendricks - Data Consultant, Metropolitan Alliance of Connected Communities
