ART OF PROTEST: CREATING, DISCOVERING, AND ACTIVATING ART FOR YOUR REVOLUTION
De Nichols, illustrated by Various Artists
This nonfiction book examines protest art from different places and periods, including work connected to the civil rights movement, Black Lives Matter, Keith Haring, and Extinction Rebellion. It considers how artists use words and visual elements to communicate political ideas. Examples range from 1960s antiwar poster lettering to the raised-fist image. Readers are invited to look closely at color, symbols, artistic methods, and typography, while also encountering work by young activist artists and considering how earlier art can inform present-day revolutionary action.
