The graphic designer has always had an important role in movements for social justice. This tour will highlight objects from the Letterform Archive that designers produced in service of revolutionary struggles from around the world spanning 100 years. These objects will tell stories of international solidarity, student activism, racial justice organizing, and queer liberation. In many cases, those who produced these works risked their lives to design, print, and distribute materials to protest injustice, win campaigns, and ultimately change the cultural narrative around those issues. They utilized evolving technologies to craft their messages for mass production and disrupt oppressive narratives. As we face a difficult political terrain today, we can learn from the social justice movements of the past. We can find inspiration from designers who devote their talents to visualizing a more just and sustainable world as we reflect on our own roles and responsibilities to fight repression.  Our docent for this in-person tour is Sabiha Basrai. This tour was made possible by a generous grant from Hauser & Wirth. Sabiha Basrai is a co-owner of Design Action Collective—a worker-owned cooperative dedicated to serving social justice movements with art, graphic design, and web development. She is a Core Member of the Alliance of South Asians Taking Action, where she works with racial justice organizers on international solidarity campaigns. Sabiha is part of the Center for Political Education Advisory Board, a member of Race Forward's Affiliate Training team, and a docent at the Letterform Archive focusing on global scripts and internationalism.

一數

Alcatraz Island is a stone island in San Francisco Bay, close to the Golden Gate, facing the old town of San Francisco, the scenery around the island is very beautiful. Because the water around the island is very deep and the water flow is very fast, the island used to be a prison. The island, which held the most famous and dangerous prisoners in the United States in the last century, became famous, and Hollywood made movies, and now it is a San Francisco Bay attraction.

Golden Gate Park

Family-Friendly Attractions

112***09

This is a relatively large park near the Golden Gate Bridge, called Golden Gate Park. Most tourists will not go to this attraction specifically, but since we are traveling independently, we can visit it in a more relaxed manner. The environment design of this park is unparalleled and it is worth checking out.

Lombard Street

泰迪小熊

Came on September 24, 2017. This attraction is unique, beautiful and interesting, and definitely one of the must-see attractions to visit San Francisco. Jiuqu Flower Street is actually a section of Lombard Street, located between Hyde Street and Leavenworth Street. This section is a steep slope, but it is designed to be eight hairpin bends, and the road is full of flowers. If you need to shoot the effect of Jiuqu, you must stand at the low position of Leavenworth Street. Chinese people can drive by themselves in the western United States where San Francisco is located. If you will drive in San Francisco, you may wish to experience the feeling of driving through Jiuquhua Street.
