- The Trayvon generation / by Alexander, Elizabeth,1962-author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 133-138)."What will be the sacred words? -- "here lies" -- "shock of delayed comprehension" -- "a tale of two textbooks" -- "cemetery for the illustrious negro dead" -- the trayvon generation -- "we dress our ideas in clothes to make the abstract visible" -- "whether the negro sheds tears" -- "there are black people in the future"."In the midst of civil unrest in the summer of 2020 following the murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, one of the great literary voices of our time, Elizabeth Alexander, wrote a moving reflection on the psyche of young Black America, turning a mother's eye to her sons' generation. Originally published in the New Yorker, the essay brilliantly and lovingly observed the lives and attitudes of young people who even as children could never be shielded from the brutality that has ended so many Black boys and men's lives. With camera phones and internet access, the racist violence that has plagued America throughout its history has become more extensively documented, and immediately and constantly accessible through news articles and social media posts. The children of this generation were teens too when Trayvon Martin was murdered in 2012 before reaching adulthood, becoming the first in a series of now well known names, and any efforts from mothers to protect their sons from the heartbreaking truth of our society was futile in the digital age of information. Now, the viral essay which spoke so resonantly to this unique historical moment that it was shared and praised by Barack Obama, John Legend, Melissa Harris Perry, and many more, is expounded upon, bookended by additional essays woven with profound insight and heart and combined with groundbreaking art by prominent and up-and-coming Black artists. Taking the reader through our past and extrapolating its lasting impact through to our current moment, Elizabeth then turns her eye to the radical potential of our future. Through her lyrical prose, Elizabeth Alexander writes with pride, fear, love, and a keen awareness of the reflective power of pop culture and art on the nature of racism and the fight for racial justice as it spans and evolves across generations. These essays are essential reading, a breathtaking expression of both the hope and horror of this era"--

Part textbook and part comic book, zine, manifesto, and survival guide, Extra Bold is filled with stories and ideas that don't show up in other career books or design overviews. Written collaboratively by a diverse team of authors, the book begins with essays connecting design to feminism, anti-racism, disability, and nonbinary thinking. Capsule histories open the design canon to overlooked people and practices. Interviews, typefaces, and projects created by dozens of contributors deliver multiple points of view, informed by a variety of abilities, gender identities, and racial and ethnic backgrounds. Useful and informative, Extra Bold explores power structures and how to navigate them. Interviews showcase people at different stages of their careers, and biographical sketches uncover the lives and work of creative producers marginalized by sexism, racism, and ableism. Illustrations by Jennifer Tobias bring warmth and narrative depth to each section."--back cover.
