Title
BLM Sign
Description
The sign seems to be descriptive towards certain puns and statements deemed as racist and/or in contradiction with the statement that is in bold letters. The phrases seem to be describing a tone that confronts and/or higlights the hypocrisy of thoughts and belief systems of the people that actually say them. The lettering of the sign is predominantly in black with some words being red which what seems to emphasize contextually.
Language
English + Dutch
