Sep 30

and I reuse them (saves time and money since each one takes at least 6 hours to plan and produce) I am an illustrator so I'm inclined to use my ruler, x-acto knife, spray mount, etc. Since I've been to over 30 protests between 2016--2020 and 2024-present I have a portfolio of signs.

My personal favorite is a giant hand (with a tRump cuff links) slamming a gavel into the US flag, smashing it to pieces. The other is a red, white and blue silkscreen of his fat face with a clown nose, and a Hitler mustache and hair cut with a 4' long red tie.

I'm thinking of making the Oct 18th sign with a red, white and blue silkscreen of his badly bruised hand and "HOPE" written underneath it. I saw an image here on DU and it caught my eye.

My signs are double sided so I get to present two signs in one! A heavy duty dowel and foam core are also a must since my signs are heavy to carry for 1-2 hours and I get blown over when there is the slightest breeze. I can twirl my sign as I march and I do NOT stop to have any pictures taken once I start marching. My agenda is to protest loudly and be at the front so I can hear the chants and join in. I am a very passionate activist and when ever I go with someone else they always slow me down so now I only go solo.

I wish I knew enough about tech to be able post images of the signs on DU.
