"Raised by an Afrofuturist" by Tracy Jones published by Microsoft Design

All illustrations in the piece by Asaan “Swamburger” Brooks

Tracy Jones has been published at Microsoft’s Design blog on Medium, and he’s put together quite the piece. It’s focus is on the need for racial equity within technological design. It draws upon his own poetry and fiction, along with his personal familial experiences as well as thoughts from peers in the field. The vastness of elements drawn upon to formulate the piece are incredibly impressive, but we can’t explain it enough to do it justice. Give it a read at the Microsoft Design blog now. It’s accompanied by original artwork from Swamburger.
