Diversity: Beyond the Checkbox

Imagine a society where Black people are the majority and white people are the underrepresented and marginalized race. What has this society's history been like? How is the educational system different than our reality today?
This dystopia is what comic book creator Brian Hawkins built with Black Cotton, and today he shares his story on his inspiration for the comic, bias, and empathy for races that are different from our own.
Diversity Beyond the Checkbox is brought to you by The Diversity Movement, hosted by Head of Content Jackie Ferguson, and is a production of Earfluence.
