Overview
<b><i>The Design of Dissent</i> is a global collection of socially and politically driven graphics on issues including Black Lives Matter, Trump protests, refugee crises, and the environment.<br><br> Dissent </b>is an essential part of keeping democratic societies healthy, and our ability as citizens to voice our opinions is not only our privilege, it is our responsibility. Most importantly,<b> it is a human right</b>, one which must be fervently fought for, protected, and defended.<br>  <br> Many of the issues and conflicts<b> visited in the first edition of this book </b>remain vividly present today, as simmering, sometimes throbbing reminders of how the work of democracy and pace of social change is often incremental, requiring patience, diligence, hope, and<b> the continuing brave voices </b>of designers whose skillful imagery emboldens, invigorates, and girds us in the face of struggle.<br>  <br> The 160+ new works in this edition <b>document the Arab Spring</b>, the Obama presidency, Occupy Wall Street, <b>Black Lives Matter</b>, the election of <b>Donald Trump</b>, Putin's continuing influence, the Women's March, the ongoing refugee crises, <b>immigration</b>, environment and humanitarian issues, and much more. This powerful collection, totaling well <b>over 550 images</b>, stands not only as a testament to the power of design but as an urgent call to action.
