I’m talking about Manassaline Coleman’s post, “Virtual Protesting 101” which went viral.  Liberia- born, DC metro area based, Manassaline Coleman, is a graphic designer and true changemaker; she is this week’s episode guest on Looking Up. We talk about using color and font to inspire joy and inspiration, fighting for what you truly believe in, the challenges and stereotypes Black women face along with hashtags used to inform an unlikely audience that might not necessarily be involved in the Black Lives Matter movement. From activism, to design, to strength, hope, sadness and everything in between, if any of her posts catch your eye, then surely this conversation will catch your ear, too.
