The Early Entry Deadline for The Anthem Awards is Friday, July 28. As an Anthem Judge, I’m excited to be a part of recognizing social impact work, and can’t wait to see this year’s entries! Get your work in today at anthemawards.com.
Come hear me talk shop about the state of podcasting with this virtual panel from the Signal Awards! Managing Director Deondric Royster will be moderating a discussion with Joni Deutsch and myself about some of the biggest topics in the podcasting industry right now.
This is a free talk, so register below so you can be part of the conversation. (And if you’re not able to make it, leave me some topics or questions that you’d like to hear answered during the event!)
I first learned about Tasheka Arceneaux-Sutton way back in 2015 when I interviewed Silas Munro. Since then, Tasheka has gone on to become one of the leading voices behind discovering Black people omitted from the graphic design history canon. Even design legend Dr. Cheryl D. Miller has sung her praises, so I knew I had to sit down with Tasheka and learn more about her remarkable journey.
Tasheka spoke to me about her experience as an educator and researcher, including an examination of her teaching philosophy. She also talked about growing up in New Orleans, her shift into design, working for the Navy Reservists, and even starting her own studio, Blacvoice Design. Lastly, she discussed her upcoming book Black Design in America, and shared how the different aspects of her work keep her motivated and inspired.
If there’s any lesson you learn from Tasheka, it should be this one: you have control over your own path as a designer, so work hard and you can make your dreams come true!

Tumblr changed their post editor, so not only am I unable to link audio from my audio host (it won’t accept the URL), but I can’t upload the audio here either because it’s over 10MB.
Starting with episode 506, you’ll have to access the Revision Path episodes directly on revisionpath.com.
