“Presidential”
2019Responsibilities Zine Design (36p)
Presidential chronicles the United States presidency over the course of 100 years.
The 45th president of the United States of America is criticized for a lot of things. Rightfully so. But I often hear that he needs to act more “presidential”. What does it mean to act presidential? Does it mean to meddle and invade foreign nations? Does it mean to treat the deaths of innocent as collateral? Does it mean treating your own citizens as criminals by process of mass incarceration or putting them in internment camps? Does it mean to ignore the voices of the most marginalized and actively work against them? Or does it mean to do all those things with civility?
