SXSWedu 2015
Diversifying Design Education
Description:
In 1991, Brenda Mitchell-Powell wrote a report called "Why is Graphic Design 93% White? Removing Barriers to Increase Opportunities in Graphic Design". And now, nearly 25 years later, we're still trying to come up with the answer.
Maurice Cherry will explore these questions through the prism of design education.
He'll share information distilled from his own experiences as an educator, along with information from dozens of interviews with Black designers of all stripes.
