Be On The Right Side of History is a poster give-away inspired by the Women’s March in 2018, when millions of people around the world stood up for equal rights and demanded change from their governments. To commemorate the moment, designer Anjela Freyja created 21 posters, all inspired by first, second and third wave feminists, featuring messages that draw attention to the fight for women’s rights.

The Be On The Right Side of History project uses Tusker Grotesk. Some characters have been slightly edited to fit the design.

These posters and more are available for free. See also this post about the font used for the website.

On the “No Means No” poster, the N in the first “No” still has the original ink traps, but the “N” in the second “No” has them removed. This is probably an oversight.

In Tusjer Grotesk, the beard in G is tapered. It was straightened here.
