Enter opening thoughts.

Disrupt and push back against a system that views you as a machine. You are not a machine. You are a divine human being. WE WILL REST!
Tricia Hersey, The Nap Bishop

When Allied Media Project’s staff came together to reshape our mission and vision a couple of years ago, we thought deeply about the kind of world we needed. Centering care continued to re-emerge in our conversations – understanding that we needed to envision a world where care for ourselves, each other, and the planet was key.

As we deepen our practice of care through building a more liberatory future, we’re excited to pilot Summer Fridays, a 4-day workweek beginning May 27th, 2022 through September 5th, 2022.

The 22nd Allied Media Conference is excited to announce the pilot of AMCPods, an opportunity for you to gather with up to 10 of your closest community members to experience the virtual conference together. We envision your AMCPods as the people you get free with: your collective, neighbors, biological & chosen family, colleagues, comrades, lovers & friends.

In an era of unfathomable disconnection, we are all reimagining what responsible gathering looks like that fosters authentic connectivity, health, and transformation. We can ask ourselves…what do these ideas mean to my local community? How can we together live into the future we are dreaming, pod by pod across the country?

AMCPods are a way to create critical connections in the places we live. To be able to sow the seeds of convening people meaningfully towards a life sustaining future rooted in media for liberation.
