Design Details

Unique Properties
Feira Preta is the biggest event of Black culture in Latin America. From its start 16 years ago as a fair, the event grew into a three-day festival, a celebratory space where material and symbolic goods are exchanged, where roots are preserved and knowledge is transferred from one generation to the next.
Inspiration
As part of our global diversity and inclusion platform, Doritos wanted to help amplify the voices that often go unheard, ensuring bold voices are given the opportunity to create positive change. To honor this vision, we selected three artists who are also members of Preta Comics, an initiative from the Feira Preta Institute that promotes local Black artists.
