Recorded December 12, 2022.  Letterpress printer and designer Ben Blount believes in the power of the printed word. He uses design as a way to communicate, motivate, tell stories, and record histories. He uses the printed word as a vehicle for conversations ranging from race and identity to stories we tell ourselves. Ben loves to highlight nuance and use the intricacies of larger cultural contexts to create catalysts for questions and new conversations.    To find more of Ben’s work visit his website: http://benblount.com/ and Instagram: @blountben Help keep the podcast alive!
