UMSI Exposition: 1960's Civil Rights Research Guide
This was a collaborative project to design a research guide for undergraduate students researching the 1960's Civil Rights Movement.
The guide itself lives here: http://sferrari.org/si647rg/websites/
But this is a poster that I developed to showcase our work for an exposition showcasing projects by students at the University of Michigan's School of Information. In a field of apps and wearable prototypes I wanted to demonstrate that library science is still doing good work and utilizes many of the same principles of UX work.
Black history month new
Black History Month is celebrated in February to recognize African American achievements throughout history. It commemorates pivotal events in the civil rights movement such as the Underground Railroad that helped slaves escape to freedom, and key figures like Frederick Douglass who fought for abolition as a leader and orator. The civil rights movement of the 1950s-60s aimed to end racial segregation and discrimination through nonviolent protests led by Martin Luther King Jr., including Rosa Parks' refusal to give up her bus seat which sparked the Montgomery bus boycott. Major victories were the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965, though discrimination continues to be addressed today.
Martin Luther King Jr
Martin Luther King Jr. was a prominent civil rights leader in the 1950s and 1960s who fought for racial equality and desegregation of public spaces. He led peaceful protests such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott and worked to end legalized racial discrimination. For his efforts to gain equal rights through nonviolent activism, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. However, his work also resulted in punishment like jail time. Tragically, he was assassinated in 1968 in Memphis, Tennessee. Today he is honored through a national holiday and memorials for his pivotal role in the American civil rights movement.

Martin Luther King: Summary of Biography by David Levering Lewis
Martin Luther King: Summary of Biography by David Levering LewisReflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History
Today we will reflect on the life of Martin Luther King as told by David Levering Lewis in his classic biography.
What struck me was how violently the KKK and the white supremacists opposed civil rights and voting rights for blacks. Twice King family houses were bombed, dozens of black homes and churches were bombed, once during Sunday school, many blacks were murdered, many were beaten both by police and protesters.
The Civil Rights Era was near the dawn of the television age. What distinguished Martin Luther King from prior generations of black leaders is he was the first celebrity civil rights leader. Now when southern Sheriffs sicced their dogs and drew their clubs on protesters, everyone in America could see the blood and watch the violence in real time on their living room television sets. Martin Luther King was also a spellbinding orator, he was great television.

Martin Luther King, Bloody Struggles in Mississippi and Selma, Lewis Biograph...Reflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History
Today we are reflecting on those chapters in David Levering Lewis’ biography of Martin Luther King covering his continuing civil rights struggles in St Augustine, in registering voters in Mississippi, and his famous march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama.
We reflect on these questions:
Who were the many martyrs, both black and white, who died in the struggle for civil rights in America?
Why were white supremacists so quick to turn to violence, often murderous violence, when they knew their actions would be televised for all to see?
Why was President Lyndon Johnson committed to passing Civil Rights legislation? How did he and Martin Luther King collaborate to further the cause of Civil Rights?
