Book design is always an interesting adventure: so much goes with the flow from page to page as you endeavor to fit it all together beautifully. This year I was honored to take on the first book in Black Workers United's journey for Black workers:
Black Workers United: SB 491 Volume 1
The task was to create a 72 page photo-book detailing the history of Black worker discrimination in CA and the trail of a series of forward-thinking bills toward justice.
Looking through the folders of photographs, I realized quickly the message was held among these images. The amount of history was impactful.
Working closely with the team at SEIU, we strung the images together, connected stories, designed a timeline, and formed a visual narrative of this first collection of historical steps.
Only 12 copies were printed and given to instrumental policy-makers.
