A guide to creating protest materials developed by the Art Lab at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston. The brief guide asks participants how they can inspire others to fight for racial justice and Black lives. The guide also links to examples of each type of protest materials that are available in the ICA's collection and viewable online. As protests against the murder of George Floyd by 4 Minneapolis police officers have happened across the country, museums and cultural heritage sites have stood in solidarity with these protests while highlighting how their own collections relate to ongoing discussions about race in the United States.
