Looking Through The Lens With Daniel Bejar

Oct 08, 2015

Manifold award-winning illustrator Daniel Bejar recently completed a full-page illustration for the University of Texas’ magazine, “The Alcade”. The artwork was made to accompany an essay entitled “Seeing Race”, written by university professor Leonard Moore (who teaches the history of the Black Power movement), which talks about the ability that black history can have to transform lives – as long as it’s taught right. According to Moore, his own way of teaching involves looking at “the black experience through a black lens”.

As seen in the image below, Daniel Bejar has excellently captured this concept in his own, unique way.
