In an effort to use our platform to elevate Black artists and voices, and in response to the shocking 2019 AIGA census statistic that only 3% of designers are Black, I suggested that SIX highlight our favorite Black artists, writers, and individuals who are making history for Black History Month in 2021. Each employee selected an individual’s account to share via our Instagram stories.
Some of our featured individuals responded and thanked us for sharing their work. See screenshots below.
