Brad Heckman posted a blog postextremely sketchy and incredibly graphic.
I recently joined NYC Sketchnoters Group, and tonight is our second meeting. Sketchnoting is all about using usual visual images -- drawings, symbols, shapes, icons, color, etc. -- to record ideas and convey meanings. For visual thinkers, it's a great companion piece to traditional chicken scratch note-taking. Visuals for Change…See More
Brad Heckman posted a blog postRoma mania, Mona, Romania
Folks, well into the 21st century, our Roma (commonly known as Gypsy) brothers and sisters are still subjected to all kinds of segregation, discrimination, and marginalization worldwide. Before my New York Peace Institute days, I…See More
