“Information and Intersectionality in the Digital Millennium” (Vaden, 2024) explored the importance of virtual and non-traditional information sharing mediums to create better information access outcomes for people experiencing multiple forms of oppression simultaneously. Non-mainstream media platforms and formats like Tumblr and zines, are a valuable potential contribution to the discourse on coloniality, decoloniality, and how resistant knowledges manifest according to the needs of the people who create them.

But wait, where do serials fit into the digital millennium? What does adaptability look like in this new era of unchecked technological advancement and increasingly convoluted information dispersal? How can we breathe new life and understanding into our own information cycles, when nothing right now is how it’s ever been? In this vision session, Mondo takes the audience to a deeper level, sparking new connections to transform the methodologies and stories of the past, in order to address the questions of the future. He aims for you to leave inspired and motivated to face whatever is next, and looks forward to seeing you in Madison, WI.
