Making Black America
Making Black America
Making Black America: Through the Grapevine is a four-part series hosted by Henry Louis Gates, Jr., that chronicles the vast social networks and organizations created by and for Black people — beyond the reach of the "White gaze." Professor Gates sits with noted scholars, politicians, cultural leaders, and old friends to discuss this world behind the color line and what it looks like today.

Every piece of created by the team for this project was original and compelling. As such, I was honored to design the finish for Making Black America. The poster is meant to highlight the interwoven stories of the four-part series which combine to tell a bigger story.
