Social Media + Communications Coordinator CONTRA-TIEMPO Activist Dance Theater Los Angeles, CA The Social Media + Communications Coordinator is a critical role at the intersection of community organizing and communications. CONTRA‑TIEMPO’s marketing is an organizing practice rooted in relationship, trust, and shared investment in our mission.

They bring both analytical skills to track and report on growth and organizing instincts to ask not just how many people are showing up—but who, why, and how do we bring more of our people in.
