MODA | Design Justice: Black Experience in Design Community Roundtable

‌In celebration of Juneteenth, join MODA in conversation with the contributors from The Black Experience in Design as they discuss community building as a creative process. Maurice Woods of Inneract Project, Malene Barnett, and Terrence Moline of AAGD will share frameworks for using art and design as a mechanism to change lives and communities.

The roundtable will be moderated by designer, strategist, and podcaster Maurice Cherry, founder of the podcast Revision Path. MODA will take questions from the audience afterward.

About The Black Experience in Design: Identity, Reflection & Expression

The Black Experience in Design: Identity, Reflection & Expression presents the work of six editors and over 70 designers, artists, curators, educators, students, and researchers who represent a wide cross-section of Black diasporic identities and multi-disciplinary practices.

Forewords by Emory Douglas and Ruha Benjamin frame the book in a historical and socio-political context, and an Afterword by Eddie Opara offers an intimate, spiritual coda.

‌Free to attend

About Design Justice Talks & Events at MODA

• How can designers help create a just and equitable world?
• How has design been used to create inequities in the past?
• What can we, as a community, do about those issues now?

These are critical questions that the MODA community asks and addresses in Design Justice talks and events. Through engagement and authentic discourse with thought leaders and design practitioners, we can demonstrate the power of design to imagine and create a better world.
