PEACE SIGNS
The Anti-War Movement: Illustrated
Edited by James Mann
Foreword by Howard Zinn
PEACE SIGNS is an incredible book featuring more than 200
posters and graphics created in response to the threat, and subsequent start, of the war in Iraq.
Some are humorous, some heart-wrenching, some raw. All are thought-provoking. By artists
and designers both famous and not, it's a reminder that we need to continue to work to be heard.

From the Publisher:
PEACE SIGNS is much more than a collection of 200 anti-war graphics relating to
the Iraq War and the global protests leading up to the conflict. PEACE SIGNS is about
the collective effort of a worldwide resistance to war.
These posters question the very definition of patriotism, capitalism and the imperialistic
intentions of the US government. The graphic styles displayed are as diverse as the people
and countries themselves, ranging from the humorous to the sobering, each containing their
own brand of thought-provoking slogans and images.
Many of these graphics and posters are the ones seen carried in the marches, posted on city
walls and shown via the internet, on television and in newspapers and magazines throughout the world.
PEACE SIGNS documents the creative side of activism and reminds future generations that massive resistance
to war and public policy existed in 2003. It connects the past to the present and has the ability to inspire
future artwork and actions against war.
