Anxiety and stress are at a new high due to the pandemic. People deal with stress differently but we all need to be doing something, and right now we should be doing a lot more of it. Show us one thing you do to manage your stress – for example, squeezing a stress ball. But do that thing so furiously that just watching your video stresses me out. (Of course, now you can’t do that suggestion. Sorry…)

Item 8 – Follow Panelists on Social Media
“If you’re inspired by them, follow any or all our Racial Inequality & Injustice panelists on social media and submit an image or grid of screenshots proving you’re following. Following one person on your team gets you 15 points. If one person on your team follows everyone and submits a grid of screenshots – or a single screenshot – proving they’re following all the panelists, your team can receive up to 90 points..

Item 5 – Pet Zoom Interview
Everyone working from home claims that their pets are their new ‘co-workers’, but were they ever properly interviewed for the position? Conduct a Zoom job interview with a friend’s pet for a new position within your household.
Item 4 – POC Solidarity Sign
Last quarantine hunt we had people making signs to show appreciation for first responders and medical professionals. This Hunt, we would like to turn our attention to showing support to people of color whose lives are impacted or even lost because of the institutional racism in the American criminal justice system. Make a sign showing your solidarity for Black Lives Matter or in memory of George Floyd or other people of color impacted by racism and post it in your window or in your front yard.
Item 3 – Rice Words
SLO-MO. Mundobax’s Rice Words is a visual treat. Elevate the world: write a word using his methods to uplift others, but because we’re a no-waste hunt, please capture all that rice, cook it and eat it (I recommend trying to make congee, I always do when I’m trying to impress someone).
Item 2 – Racial Inequality Portrait
Create a portrait of one of the far too many black people who have been hurt or killed by racial inequality in America. It must be in black and white — no color and no shades of grey. Post it on social media along with a short description of who this person was and how their life was taken. Tag it #NotOneMore & #BlackLivesMatter. Upload your artwork (not a screenshot of your social media post) to the GISH website.
Item 1 – Foliage Crown
You know those videos where they pass around an object to a few different people and they each demonstrate a different imaginary or real use of that object? No? Well, it’s epic, but we can’t remember the name of it. Let’s “next level” this and do it on Zoom with some or all of your teammates. Virtually “pass” a ‘Foliage Crown or Hat’ around on zoom. Each headpiece must be different and they all must be wearable. The first person to pass something should just be handing off a handful of weeds. Every person thereafter should “receive” a different headpiece, put it on, take it off and ‘pass’ it to the next person in the Zoom.
