Abstract: This interview with Silas Munro, co-author of Strikethrough! Typographic Messages of Protest, explores the intersection of signage, typography, and protest movements. Munro discusses the historical and contemporary role of protest graphics, emphasizing their function as both a form of resistance and a voice for marginalized groups. Munro also reflects on the evolving nature of protest communication, from physical signage to digital activism. Ultimately, the discussion situates signage as a key medium for public discourse, rallying movements, and preserving activist histories.
