Voicebox: Activism

Activism

Never before have so many issues been championed at once. The environment; equal rights for ethnic minorities and LGBTQ+; an end to class discrimination and access to opportunities for the disabled. It's been over 100 years since women in the UK were first allowed to vote and the feminist fight for gender equality still continues. Refugees in desperate need of help and compassion are instead treated as criminals. Activism is integral to making these issues mainstream and bringing about much needed change. We at Voice want to shine a light on these movements, and specifically how you are campaigning for change. Big or small, global or personal, we can all make a difference, and we want to hear your stories. So whether you're at the forefront of an international movement, or you've just decided to cut down on plastic, share your story and help inspire others to make the world a brighter place!

    The plastic cup: A thorn in the eco warrior musician’s side

    by Sophie McCarthy Contributor

    With so many bands jumping on the Climate Change bandwagon, do their messages create behavioural change? With the amount of plastic left at The O2 after The 1975 graced its stage, the answer appears to be no. But where does the blame lie?

    Mars and Beyond

    by Maddie Drury Contributor

    Mars and Beyond explores the dark future that may await the planet when climate change takes hold. From obese people made of silicone to recycled coffee cups turned into coral reefs, this art exhibition is an eclectic mix of dystopian design.
