We Make America is a group of makers who feel the urgent need to come together to address the aftermath of the election of Donald Trump. We are a diverse group of people who want to contribute to civil society, to advocate for social justice, human rights, and the rights of the disenfranchised. We believe there is a vital need to address the erosion of democracy. We are united by our desire to make powerful visual statements that will be an integral part of our political actions.

In order to do this we need graphic designers, painters, architects, filmmakers, artists, writers, technology experts, makers of all kinds. We are self-starters who are pooling our skills, working together, to ensure that our voices are heard in this challenging and uncertain time. We encourage growth and change within our operating vision, and we foresee that different committees will take on specific tasks and projects. As makers, we have the ability to invent powerful statements that will challenge the new administration and raise awareness about the many issues and rights at stake.
