Design & Art Direction - Recognize: Black Stories
RECOGNIZE: Black culture in progress

Dockers is moving beyond Black History Month, to acknowledge the breadth of Black excellence all year long.

Recognize is a series designed to amplify Black stories, employ diverse talent, and invest in organizations that bring more opportunity and resources to Black communities. This is not a campaign. This is a celebration of Black joy.

In our March chapter, we Recognized Selema Masekela: an action sports icon, media personality, musician and entrepreneur. He’s inspired a more diverse generation of young athletes around the world, and he continues to lead by showing us all how to stand up for what’s right—on and off the board.
In our June chapter, we Recognized Maryse Pearce, the Program Manager for Stonewall Community Foundation. As a queer Black woman and native New Yorker, Maryse is passionate about the work her organization does because she’s a part of the community it serves.
