As a Social Media Associate for the Sawyer Seminar Series “Natives and Nativists, Migrants and Immigrants in an American City”, I was the creator of their brand identity, in charge of planning content strategies, managing and creating their social media content. In addition, I designed their promotional materials such as posters, pins, and tote bags.
Based at Rutgers-Newark, a university with a highly diverse student body, a highly active scholarly faculty, and deep roots as an anchor institution in the city of Newark, the Sawyer Seminar Series examined the past, present, and future of Newark in order to examine race, inequality, and immigration in the constantly changing immigrant cultures of America’s cities.
During the Fall 2022 and Spring 2023 semesters, “Natives and Nativists, Migrants and Immigrants in an American City” comprised a series of panels and workshops that draw on the expertise and research projects of Rutgers-Newark faculty and graduate students, local, national, and global scholars, and bring together community activists, scholars and local artists who focus on these issues.
