Description

The Design of Dissent is a global number of socially and politically driven graphics on issues including Black Lives Matter, Trump protests, refugee crises, and the environment.

Dissent
is an essential a part of keeping democratic societies healthy, and our ability as citizens to voice our opinions isn’t just our privilege, it is our responsibility. Most importantly, this can be a human right, one which should be fervently fought for, secure, and defended.
 
Most of the issues and conflicts visited in the first edition of this book remain vividly present today, as simmering, infrequently throbbing reminders of how the work of democracy and pace of social change is regularly incremental, requiring patience, diligence, hope, and the continuing brave voices of designers whose skillful imagery emboldens, invigorates, and girds us in the face of struggle.
 
The 160+ new works in this edition document the Arab Spring, the Obama presidency, Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, the election of Donald Trump, Putin’s continuing influence, the Women’s March, the ongoing refugee crises, immigration, environment and humanitarian issues, and a lot more. This powerful collection, totaling well over 550 images, stands not only as a testament to the power of design but as an urgent call to action.
