For more than four decades, renowned advocacy organization People For the American Way has inspired and mobilized Americans to defend freedom and justice. With their new kit, they share their wisdom and empower all of us to actively participate in our democracy.
The Art of Saving Democracy (Storey Publishing) features the work of 20 renowned American artists — such as Roy Lichtenstein, Shepard Fairey, Carrie Mae Weems, Vincent Valdez, and Deborah Kass — and includes an activism guide with a foreword by Jamie Lee Curtis, 50 postcards that can be used to urge friends to vote or be part of a postcard-writing campaigns, five mini posters to display on store front windows and community bulletin boards, and four sheets of colorful stickers to spread important messages. Also included are 30 conversation starters and a practical how-to guide that teaches essential skills for activism, such as: how to write an opinion piece; how to present a strong argument to elected officials; and how to take collective action.
Whether you're taking to the streets or taking up a pen, The Art of Saving Democracy can help you be more effective when you express yourself, champion our shared rights and freedoms, and resist hate and authoritarianism.
All royalties from the kit will go to People For the American Way, a progressive organization started by Norman Lear to combat bigotry and promote creative expression.
