Packing and Cracking: A Digital Mapmaking Event About Gerrymandering in NC

All Events

Past event

  • When October 23, 2020, 7:30 – 9 pm
  • Where Online

Do we choose our politicians or do our politicians choose us? Packing and Cracking is an interactive mapmaking event about gerrymandering: the pervasive practice of politicians choosing their voters rather than the other way around. Through digital drawing and map drawing games, Packing and Cracking uses critical cartography, gerrymandering history, and interviews with politicians and reformers today to show how easy and disenfranchising gerrymandering can be and ask what, if anything, can we do about it.
