Let's be real: this is a Corita Kent fan account. We unabashedly love her incredible protest art.

Which brings us to the question we're itching to ask you:

Who are your favorite protest artists? What is the activist art that fires up your heart and who are the artists behind it? (Any time period, anywhere in the world.)

We want to hear about the activist art in your heart!

Serigraph (silk screen print) by Corita Kent entitled "for emergency use soft shoulder" from 1966. 

The top 2/3 shows bold blue, red and yellow letters on a white background. The bottom 1/3 has white text over a red background. The text is a joyous riot of rightside-up and upside-down letters at different angles. 

It say: "Get with the action. Wine that Rejoyces Man's Heart.  Powerful Enough To Make a Different. For Emergency Use Soft Shoulder."

If you're a fan of Corita Kent's artwork, too, we have good news!

The Corita Center is giving away a free download of the poster created by Corita in 1976 for the Campaign for Human Development.
