CAMBIO
SOCIOLOGICAL BROCHURE
ABSTRACT
Fascinated by the power of writing, graphics and sociology I decided to explore the concept of using design as a device to drive emotional decisions on certain topics. I choose to focus on controversial topics and reasons why people come to the United States. In recent years, Immigration has been a topic of political and social controversy. Disturbed by the ways immigrants are treated at the border, I decided to research and create a booklet that would help build transparency and understanding.
PROCESS & TOPICS
THE PROBLEM
In the United States, immigration has become a topic of political and social controversy. Inaccurate representations of people migrating to the United States has lead to racial profiling and the current humanitarian crisis at the southern border.
THE SOLUTION
Magazines, newspapers and other materials are available anywhere at any given time and are easy to take away. Because magazines are easily accessible I decided to create a magazine dedicated to depict the hardships of peoples living in areas impacted by violence, financial crisis, and lack of resources. This magazine will then be showing reasons why impacted people choose to cross the US-Mexico Border.
