Collegiate's Poster Contest Winner

STORY AND POSTER BY TONY CEPHAS, FNN REPORTER, COLLEGIATE BUREAU. 

My poster represents the many ways that the world has changed through time. The slave holding the earth represents how African Americans had to carry the weight of the world and do hard labor for everyone else only to receive nothing in return. The jail and the silhouettes represent how people like Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks had to change the world by risking their reputation and taking chances to make a difference. The right side of the poster of Barrack Obama shows that we have gone from being slaves to becoming president of the United States. African Americans have made so much progress over time.
