Charming treatment for a serious subject from Polyester Studio in Toronto for Mozilla and their efforts to help students of color who are often flagged to their teachers because testing software can’t see them.

From the team at Polyester Studio: “Mozilla approached us to help tell Amaya’s story of encountering software that failed to recognize her because of her skin tone.

“Testing and Recognition Software is essential for students across the world to use for tests and take classes. Did you know some facial detection testing software that schools use fails to recognize non-white skin tones over half the time?
