David Wang: The Long Echo of Racism

With the growing calls for equity and social justice sparked by the #MeToo and Black Lives Matter movements and the surge in attacks against people of Asian descent, awareness of systemic racism has never been higher. Like many designers of color, during the course of my professional career I have been subject to acts of discrimination—acts that I inherently believe were racially motivated. That’s the challenge of covert racism: It’s hard to prove the reason or reasons behind these microaggressions, which is why so many of us suffer in silence.
