S2 E5 Stories_UnderScored ≠ Original: The Art of Institutional Plagiarism

What happens when your original idea for amplifying underrepresented artists doesn’t just get ignored—it gets absorbed? In this episode of The AC Pulse, Amanda Corrales unpacks how RedLine took her event proposal and repackaged it as their own summit theme, “Stories_UnderScored.”

🎧 Inside this episode:

• The pitch: Artist Through the Prism—a storytelling platform for underrepresented and under-resourced artists.

• The “coincidence”: RedLine’s summit theme, Stories_UnderScored.

• The receipts: calls, emails, and side-by-side comparisons that show how institutional plagiarism hides behind equity language.

• Satirical commercial breaks that cut straight to the heart of nonprofit gaslighting.

🔥 Why it matters:
When institutions steal framing, they don’t just borrow words—they dilute intent, erase creators, and rewrite community history with prettier press releases.

🎙️ Listen in if you’ve ever had your pitch lifted, your work diluted, or your story “borrowed” by organizations claiming to center equity.
