Social Justice Posters
This image represent how African Americans have been mistreated throughout history and how we are standing up for ourselves. The young female in the front with the hand print on her face goes well with the slogan, because somebody is always trying to silence us when we speak out against our mistreatment. The fists in the background shows how we are united together to fight for this cause of equality for all.
I chose to create a poster about protecting our tigers as there is little support for protecting these majestic creatures who are on the brink of extinction. As a child, I loved going to the zoo. Tigers were one of my favorite animals to see. Knowing that they will die off soon, I feel sorry for the next generation, as they may not be able to see tigers live and in action.
Inclusive Stock Photography
The Inclusive Stock Photography project was designed to address the scarcity of people of color, multicultural people, and LGBTQ+ people in commercial stock photography by creating professional-quality images of these underrepresented people in a variety of everyday settings, including romantic and platonic relationships, family, and communities.
