Augus 28, 2013 marked the fiftieth anniversary of the civil rights March On Washington which climaxed with Martin Luther King, Jr’s “I Have a Dream” speech. I created this infographic for CNN that explored many aspects of how the lives of African-Americans, and American culture in general, had changed in the 50-year interim. The graphic visualizes key economic and demographic data as well as historical, political and cultural facts.
