A weekly selection of design links, brought to you by your friends at the UX Collective.
Introducing: The Design Circle →
A new collective of 26 leading voices in the design industry coming together to drive positive change — including directing a quarter-million dollar annual scholarship fund devoted to bringing students from diverse backgrounds into undergraduate programs. If you know a thing or two about my history and background, you can only imagine how excited I am to be part of this initiative.

- Design Governance → A design system’s governance process. By Brad Frost
The UX Collective newsletter is a self-funded newsletter read by over 116,800 designers every week. The best way you can support it is by sharing it with your friends.
