Being black in America doesn’t carry the same weight as it does being white in America unless you view it from a negative perspective. Blackness is one of the most grounded foundations that we see out in the world today but it is so easily overlooked by individuals that feel like it belongs in a system they created. From the beating of Rodney King which took place on March 3, 1991, to the murder of George Floyd on May 25, 2020, we have witnessed the black body being used as an example to show that it has very little value on the scale of racial hierarchy. With a system in place that has identified the black body in a negative connotation, it is time to establish the correct representation of blackness in America. I intend to use design and my surroundings to educate and advocate on the matter of how misidentifying the black body has created negative effects for generations of black men and women. Using a powerful black gaze to show an internal reflection, defining the internal behavior of the oppressor, and bringing awareness towards inclusivity and black culture. Without the equitable inclusion of black culture in society, this might not truly feel like the land of the free...but it could be.
