Maine artist and Lewiston art teacher Eamon White recently created a series of vector portraits for Black History Month featuring Black Americans who were impacted by racism and fought to change it. White started using the hashtag #CreateChange after his vector portrait of George Floyd went viral in 2020.

He opted for non-traditional skin tones in the series “because I want people to see the portraits as people, not seeing them just as Black,” he said.
