St. Louis’ very own De Nichols (@de_nichols) has developed an organization with 3 other black designers called Design as Protest. ⁠
⁠
DAP is a collaborative effort who’s mission is to hold the design industry accountable in using our collective power to reverse the harms that architecture and design fields have caused to black people and communities. ⁠
⁠
DAP has created 9 very specific demands calling for change in the design industry, an actions library with ideas, practices, and actions for how the design community should respond, and drafted letters and templates that you can send to your agencies, institutions, and government about these demands. ⁠
