Protest Questions for Listening is a (protest) publication containing a series of (protest-) questions for listening (one for each page); collected among our (listening) community and by interviewing and listening to people protesting for various causes in public spaces. Some people were directly asked: what might a protest question for listening be? These questions seek to nurture, inspire and demonstrate how listening may be a possible form of protest. It is our hope that it will be used at demonstrations, put up as posters and distributed among friends.
The production is supported by Nørrebro’s Lokaludvalg.
The publication make use of the (open-source) protest-font: Mother Nature is a Lesbian. Which is based on a handwritten sign from a 1974 gay parade at Christopher Street, New York, and created as typeset by artist and activist Be Oakley at Genderfail Press, Brooklyn.
It is here used after an economic donation to Genderfail Press.
It both feels inspiring and empowering to right protest-question with/through a font that are carrying a long linage of protest. An acknowledge of how all protest already always stands on the shoulders of other protests… carrying and supporting each other…
