“A Threat to Justice” included in the Graphis’ Protest Poster 2 Annual

Syron Design is humbled to announce “A Threat to Justice” was awarded a honorable mention in the 2021 Graphis Protest Poster 2 Annual

It is widely believed that many of our anti-drug laws have racially disfavored African Americans and low-income communities. While recent bipartisan legislation begins to reform some of the sentencing laws that have wrongly and disproportionately harmed African-Americans.

“A Threat to Justice” is a call to action, a reminder, and a rally for America to remember Dr. Martin Luther King Junior’s words, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”

The piece was commissioned by Nebraska Appleseed, a nonprofit organization that fights for justice and opportunity for all Nebraskans. Nebraska Appleseed takes a systemic approach to complex issues – child welfare, immigration policy, affordable health care, and poverty – and take our work wherever it will do the most good, whether that’s in the courthouse, at the Capitol, or in the community.
