The Coloring Book

by Morgan Markey (she/her)

This colouring book, addresses institutional and inherent racism by subverting the idea of a traditional children’s colouring book. Outlined in this colouring book are images taken from current events that depict police brutality in the United States. The reader is left to decide who in the image has lighter skin and who has darker skin. By making these assumptions, the reader is faced to reconcile with their own inherent racism and biases due to the social and political environment we live in, where black people continue to be abused and murdered at the hands of law enforcement.
