Diversity in Graphic Design - I See Pixels Podcast Episode 11 by I See Pixels published on 2017-02-08T13:44:35Z While we try to make black history very day we will also take the month. In honor of Black History Month we discuss diversity in graphic design. We tackle this from 2 directions, using diverse people in design work and black people in the design field. We make as many Kanye references as possible and we discuss the long term effects of not seeing yourself in representations of roles. We also talk about aspirational acquisitions like Tommy Hilfiger that may not readily use someone like you in their advertising. We cover the 2 main factors that contribute to the low percentage of black designers: Lack of resources or access to resources The "old boy" network and the ramification on hiring Resources: Why is graphic design 93 percent white?
