B. Loewe is the director of On Point Studios, a virtual events and creative interventions shop that partners with social movement organizations to blend campaign strategy, story-telling, and digital mediums to make change. Most recently, B. served as the Deputy Director of Distributed Organizing for The Frontline, a campaign of the Working Families Party and the Movement for Black Lives. B. came into movement as a teen in the Maryland suburbs of DC when his older sister was politicized by meeting survivors of torture at the hands of the graduates of the US Government’s School of Americas. Reading Howard Zinn at age 15 and learning “you can’t be neutral on a moving train,” hearing Archbishop Oscar Romero name “it is unjust to have more than you need when others have not enough,” and resonating with Che’s message that a revolutionary is motivated by love were world reshaping moments that reset the course of the past twenty+ years of his life.
