Branding | Social Campaign
uncensorED is an education-oriented social activism campaign. Based in Georgia, the campaign takes on Georgia House Bill 1084 which censors conversations about racism and racial history in classrooms under the guise that they’re “divisive”.

Visual Identity
Inspired by the bold and unashamed nature and language of protest and pro-justice posters, the visual identity centers education as its main focus. uncensorED is built upon scholastic motifs and colors—the palette suggestive of the prominence of primary colors in k-12 settings. The typography consists of a mix of serif and sans serif, for a balance between legibility and a literary quality. Our repeated use of bold strikethroughs and highlights conveys seriousness and places importance on vital information throughout the type heavy branding.

Takeaway
The premise for the takeaway was to provide our audience with the tools to become a successful advocate. Our target audience, mostly consisting of individuals in academics, often use pouches for their stationary. In addition, bumper stickers have been a common way to communicate values and advocate for causes. Users are encouraged to put the magnets on fridges and whiteboards in work and school environments.
