Signs of the Time is a newly formed collective of people who care greatly about this fraught moment in our country. We are committed to elevating and amplifying the creative and inspiring ways people are protesting.
More to the point, we celebrate the undeniable originality, the hand-made beauty and the ferocity of purpose that has been on display in protest signs seen at rallies across the country. In sharing the story behind the sign and its maker/holder, we hope this will serve as both an urgent yet joyful call to action and a humane record of the resistance/revolution.
Signs of the Time can be found on Instagram, FaceBook, and here on Substack.
To submit your own sign and story, please go to Signs-of-the-Time.com.
Photos of signs and interview comments have been used with permission of the sign creators, photographers and citizen journalists.
