*race may differ was inspired by a quote from Dr. King’s speech at the Detroit Walk to Freedom in 1963. In it, he reflects that though skin may differ, everyone has a common humanity that is much the same.
The stars of our campaign were these typographic figures. They were crafted out of a multitude of symbols as an intuitive metaphor for diversity.
Respect!
