Nobody asked, but I want to share a few fonts and why they are fonting...yes yes I know its not a real word. Think of it as a fashion show, but for fonts.

Encouraging you all (Black, POC, Afro-Caribbean and African designers) to design from our very own design sensibility, creativity and craftsmanship is part of the drive to recuperating ❤️🩹 our Black / African colonial past.

In 2022, the state of black design will be awarding over 30k in scholarship dollars. All due to the legacy of hard work and sacrifice my mother modeled years ago. I'm hoping next year she can be present to hand some of these out with me.”

Design will change your life, just hang in there and keep pushing, keep making improvements, keep learning, keep making meaningful connections, keep praying, keep adding value, you will not just buy a car you will buy your desired future-there is enough to go round!
