Colors
[13]
Bold solid colors are characteristic of the Du Bois style. To maintain
consistency in your designs, here is a Du Bois-style color palette.
Note the use of the Pan-African colors [9] (used 20 years before they
were defined). Black, brown, and gold are used to indicate racial
makeup in plates 1, 13, and 54. Plates 12, 50, and 51 use black to
indicate slavery, and green for freedom.
