Design as Protest

Design: Fay Darmawi, 2017

Be a part of Design Justice's National #DesignAsProtest Day to raise awareness of the role of strong design and visual messaging in social movements. From Shepard Fairey's Obama HOPE to Rosie the Riveter, political art has historically proven a powerful tool in inspiring culture change. Now more than ever, we must use what we've got, our own skills and talents, for equality and justice - on the 20th AND the following days, months, and years.
