Reading Response 6
The way we change the commercial design field to include a diversity of voices and visions is by first off by listening to the diverse voices and visions. The design community often ignores the diverse designer, although not always on purpose because sometimes not enough attention is being brought to those designs or designers.
The commercial design field and the study of design history will have an evolution in the next 20 years or so as it would include different perspectives and be diverse with its views it will be less inclusive as it is now. The commercial design field and the study of design history would branch out and include designers who are black, Hispanic, Asian, and ect. There are exhibitions like “As, Not For; Dethroning Our Absolutes” that are bringing attention and awareness to black designers and the black community and if there is an influx of exhibitions that bring attention to black designers
