"What are the experiences of Black, Brown, and Latinx graphic design educators in college classrooms today? How does racial identity influence their work and practice? What does it mean to be a person of color in the field of graphic design? In Black, Brown + Latinx Design Educators: Conversations on Design and Race, Kelly Walters unpacks these questions with design educators of color. The book collects twelve deeply personal interviews. The educators offer insights into their experiences teaching at public and private collegiate institutions across the United States and in Canada, as well their unique perspectives on themes such as growing up in predominantly White spaces, navigating the immigrant experience, defying parental expectations, and dealing with toxic work environments. Interwoven throughout the book are images that hold cultural significance, from family heirlooms and photos to design works that highlight aspects of the designers' identities. Walters centers the educators' stories--childhood influences, undergraduate and graduate experiences, career paths--and provides a critical resource for students and emerging educators and designers of color to see reflections of themselves in the classroom and studio."--Back cover
