The world of video games is more than just franchise titles & big-name companies like Sony & Nintendo - in the shadow of these giants is a diverse & growing cohort of gamers, designers, developers & executives driving innovation in the art, tech, & narrative of a changing industry.

Opportunity & education play an enormous role in changing the face of video games, & Damon Packwood of Gameheads Oakland is working with some of the most influential people in the industry to train & help place young people of color in the video game industry who are often creating games independently. Whether you're an avid gamer or not familiar with gaming at all, join Forum host Mina Kim & guest Damon Packwood for an interactive look at the gaming world & the next generation of gamers & game design.
