À propos de ce contenu audio

 Chris Rudd is an activist, educator, and design leader. Built on his commitment to community organizing, social equity work, systems change, and youth development, Chris founded ChiByDesign, a Black-owned and people-of-color-led design firm in Chicago. In addition to leading ChiByDesign, Chris is also an Instructor and Lead of Community-led Design for the Chicago Design Lab at the Illinois Institute of Technology Institute of Design, where his work focuses on developing the co-design practice and the anti-racist design field. Chris is a former Stanford Institute of Design (d.school) Civic Innovation fellow and a current Chicago Urban League IMPACT fellow.

Chris is dad to three daughters: ages 15, 6 and 3.

In this episode, Chris talks about how his strong socio-political views were forged in an interacial household with activist parents and the countless ways this world view manifests in his children's lives and his own anti-racism work. Chris shares some larger-than-life stories about his father and the working class wisdom he imparted when Chris became a dad at 22. Chris discusses his time at Standford's d.school, the limits of human-centered design, and why he ignored the allure of startup culture and Silicon Valley to remain committed to place-based social innovation in Chicago. Finally, we talk about the connections and similarities between leading (and serving) community projects, a creative consultancy, and one's own family.
