Contributing authors and creators demonstrate how to develop a pro-Black design practice of inclusivity, including Black representation in designed media, anti-racist pedagogy, and radical self-care. Through autoethnography, lived experience, scholarship, and applied research, these contributors share proven methods for creating an anti-racist and inclusive design practice. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe contributions in \u003ci\u003eAn Anthology of Blackness\u003c\/i\u003e include essays, opinion pieces, case studies, and visual narratives. Many contributors write from an intersectional perspective on race, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, and ability. Each section of the book expands on community-driven concerns about the state of the design industry, design pedagogy, and design activism. Ultimately, this articulated intersection of Black identity and Black design practice reveals the power of resistance, community, and solidarity--and the hope for a more equitable future. With a foreword written by design luminary Elizabeth (Dori) Tunstall, \u003ci\u003eAn Anthology of Blackness \u003c\/i\u003eis a pioneering contribution to the literature of social justice. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributors\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eKprecia Ambers, Jazmine Beatty, Anne H.
