For BHM, the United States Postal Service mailed it in with commemorative stamps.

"Nobody black designed that," I said to myself. It's awkward, uninspired and visually unappealing.

Shocker and surprise, it's designed by a white guy.

Way to honor Black History Month, USPS.

Underwhelming and limp.

Huge missed opportunity there.

Just like the ad industry, there are a couple of white art directors that oversee everything and have a vice like grip on what goes in or out.

If you see a half-assed black (or any kind of ethnic) stamp with mailed-in and uninspired artwork, it always traces back to those specific white A.D.'s.
