I designed this poster for this years May Day festivities, to get the word out and make some cool giveaways...like printing a few hundred of these for the opening of the All Of Us Or None exhibit at the Oakland Museum. The next batch I print will be to give away to a local Bay Are organization to help with their organizing. But if you want to make a version for yourself you can download a PDF here from our website and print a copy for yourself and all your friends.

Here is a new graphic for you to download. I intended to make this image during the inspiring uprisings in Wisconsin, but never got to it. Then when the Occupy movement reared its head I thought again about making this image...and now, the image finally finished, I hope it can be of use...

A friend just sent me this graphic of geek feminism icon Ada Lovelace, credited by Wikipedia as "The World's First Computer Programmer". The portrait was created by Colin Adams, Fred the Oyster, and Ryan Kaldari for the Ada Initiative, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting women in tech. It's scalable and public domain, so feel free to reuse it however you like (many download options here).
Another graphic for the "Occupy" movement. A reminder that Liberation struggles are happening everywhere around the world.

This poster was developed for the bank actions happening this week in Oakland to show my solidarity with all those who are challenging the Big Banks to demand a moratorium on foreclosures and to stop its investments in detention centers and dirty energy and to hold them accountable for their role in causing our economic crisis.

This is a poster that I recently made to bring attention to the current situation in Southeast Mexico in the state of Chiapas, and the ongoing hunger strike that members of the EZLN's La Otra Campana have embarked on for more than 30 days now.
The hunger strike's demands are for Justice, an end to assassinations, forced relocation, repression, forced disappearances and incarcerations.

I was inspired to make this poster after leaving the General Assembly at Oscar Grant Plaza in Oakland last night, I was really moved by the people the people sharing their stories and calling for a General Strike. There was one father there who told the crown about his four sons that were arrested on Tuesday night during the police riot in downtown Oakland, and how proud he was of them. He then started to chant Strike! Strike! Strike! and everyone started chanting with him. It was very powerful. I wanted to make design an announcement, something people can use to post and encourage as many people as possible to show their power and stand united under the call of a General Strike. I think this movement can be very powerful, I hope this inspires other General Assemblies across the country to call for a Strike in their city.
I'm just back from New York City where I had the opportunity to visit Occupy Wall Street and connect with artists who are mobilizing on the Occupy front. INSPIRING!! Here is a recent piece I did for the Occupied Wall Street Journal
You can download my new poster (to the left) by clicking here.
As an artist that works in the social justice sector, the collective and powerful energy behind the Occupy Wall Street movement, which has suddenly erupted and spread across the country - the world- has created many openings for those of us who were engaged in these battles. This global social movement is one that is focused entirely around the true cost of capitalism, the excessive power of corporations and banks, and the economic devastation being imposed on people around the world. The fact that its even acceptable for us to critique capitalism in mainstream conversations and in mainstream media, opens many doors for activists artists, and for the entire social justice sector overall. I find it inspiring that this movement has at its core, a thriving arts and culture component.
In all of the imagery I've seen used to promote the Occupy movement, I haven't seen any bears. I think that is a glaring omission! The Bear is the symbol of the market in recession, of investor timidity, fear, and the collapse of profit. The Bull, garishly betesticled symbol of Wall Street, is its counterpart. I made this graphic to celebrate the bears, metaphorical, and literal: the triumph of wild nature over domestication.
Download a high-resolution PDF of this image to print out for yourself by clicking HERE. Josh points out that the bear is often seen as a necessary part of capitalism, correcting the excesses. Not if it kills and eats the bull, I say!

Boston designer Eric Gulliver sent along this great poster calling for the freedom of Bradley Manning, the soldier taking the fall for the Wikileaks cables. This should be high-enough res to print at 8.5"x11".
Here's another downloadable poster I cooked up for the occupy movement. Based on a very, very old illustration I did (I think over 10 years ago), I've spiced it up a bit. Click on the image to the left, then drag the high-res to your desktop. Enjoy, hit the streets, stay safe!
Here are two more Occupy movement posters, both making important connections to other struggles, and complicating the term "occupation." The on on the left is by Dignidad Rebelde, and a high-res version can be downloaded HERE. The one on the right is a collaboration by Sandra Castro, Ernesto Yerena and Orlando Arenas, a high-res version can be downloaded HERE.


Been working on this for a couple days now, a poster connecting the Occupy! movement to the struggle to free political prisoners and end prison injustice. The quote is from a beautiful poem by Assata Shakur. If you don't know who she is, PLEASE run out and read her autobiography today. I'm not kidding, just do it!

These first two images are by Chris at Printed Matter printshop in Portland, OR. Click on the images, then download to your desktop. The bottom image was emailed to us by Dave Menninger, that one can be downloaded by clicking HERE.
I'm still sorting out all the comments on the poster designs, but in the meantime, and while they get "perfected," I figured I might as well post some high-res pdf versions for people to download and use. These 5 posters are all designed and prepped to be printed out at 11x17, on a color laser printer. I'll work on greyscale versions soon.
The image to the left is a new one, based on Bloomberg's response to the OWS action...

"the administration has moved to ramp up deportations, expanding the brutal efficiency of a system that Mr. Obama has acknowledged is broken, arbitrary and unjust." - New York Times, Aug 15. 2011
After hitting a record 1 MILLION deportations, the Obama administration just did the unthinkable: Forcing states and police departments to comply with a controversial program called Secure Communities or S-Comm – a move guaranteed to deport many more millions of people.
Digging around on the web I found this great image of a keffiyeh by Noah Scalin on his site Another Limited Rebellion. The image is Creative Commons licensed (Non-Commerical, Share-Alike) so I thought I'd re-post it. You can download the high-res by clicking HERE.

Ai Weiwei is missing! The provocative Chinese artist was arrested at the Beijing airport on April 3 2011 and hasn't been seen or heard from since. My friends Amy Harwood and Ryan Pierce of Signal Fire have started a campaign for artists to show their solidarity with him and their opposition to China's ongoing crackdown on dissent. The site is weiweiworkshere.org and features downloadable graphics for people to print out and post in studios, public spaces, galleries; wherever art appears. Do it now. You're next.
Inspired by the free downloads we've been putting up about Wisconsin, a friend in the UK has created a free downloadable poster page related to the protests against the cuts over there. Very cool. Check it out HERE. And there is another HERE.
Here's a couple of images in solidarity with the people of Michigan that were forwarded to us by Kathleen Judge:
This page is a permanent home for all of the Wisconsin Struggle-related download-able graphics we have been posting on Justseeds. All of the images we have posted throughout the fight are collected here in one place. To the right is Colin Mathes' Union Made poster, and a high-res version can be downloaded HERE.
Our friend Brandon Bauer just sent along these 2 new Wisconsin graphics, you can click on them, then save the image to your desktop as high-res:
I also got sent this great pdf by my friend Nathan. It's a poster by the Little Friends of Printmaking. I couldn't find any info about it on their site, but hopefully they'll be cool with me re-posting it here. You can download the pdf by clicking HERE.

Here's another download-able graphic for Wisconsin (and everyday use, of course!) by Roger Peet.
You can download the high-res version HERE.

I had been working on this pennant as a utopian call, a hope and desire that Wisconsin would develop from a militant struggle that is awesome and inspiring, but also shockingly reformist, to one with some real teeth and drive towards self-governance. Now it seems that it may be more practical than I thought! Lets dust off ye olde General Strike!!! (Eric Drooker's General Strike stickers also kicked my butt to finish this, thanks Eric!)
Here are high resolution, download-able, black & white copies of this pennant to be photocopied on red paper and pasted on sticks!:

Today HB87 passeds out of the Georgia House of Representatives 113-56. The multi-state plan conceived of by the far-right group Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) is well underway with bills similiar to Arizona's anti-immigrant, anti-human right SB 1070. If you would like to read more about how these bills are not merely "copy cat" actions but a strategy that has been in the works for some time now I recommend reading the well researched blog posts by the Applied Research Center's Seth Wessler and Katrina Hurtado. They have kept mapping the bills and laws as they pop up in more and more states.
If you are in one of these states and would like to have this graphic adapted to apply to your state please send an email to Melanie HERE

Yesterday at the protest in Madison, Wisconsin union supporters were banned from entering the State Capital. Only a few supporters were allowed to stay inside. The vast majority of opposition to Scott Walker and his bill to end collective bargaining rights for public workers was locked outside this public building. The energy at the protest was great; more defiant and angry than the past few weeks.

Over the past couple weeks I have been hearing about the Workers in Wisconsin who are fighting to stop the passage of AB11, a bill that would strip workers of collective bargaining and cuts to other things like their pensions and health benefits. In the crazy economy we are living through, we see the response by government to cuts to social services, we see the tuition hikes in our public universities. And we look around and see that the rich are still getting richer and paying less and less taxes. While this is happening we see working people under attack for being greedy and demanding too much in these hard economic times, a perfect time to attack workers and take away what has been won by the Labor Movement. The worst is seeing attacks on Unions by idiots who call their members unamerican, hearing people on the radio call the protestors thugs. Hearing the Governor of Wisconsin who was recorded on a telephone call with a blogger pretending to be one of the Koch Brothers talking about how he has contemplated sending agent provocateurs to undermine protesters efforts. This was what really pushed me to make a solidarity poster, I think that in these though economic times we need to support workers when they demand fair treatment so they can survive these times.

Our friend Mark Vallen explains:
Along with people all over the world, I have been profoundly inspired by the heroic Egyptian people’s struggle for democracy against the 30-year old U.S. backed dictatorship of Hosni Mubarak. As an expression of solidarity I created a digital artwork titled “Freedom,” so named because the word appears in my graphic in Arabic, Spanish, and English; my creation is dedicated to the people of Egypt, with hopes that their democratic aspirations will soon be realized.
I created a downloadable poster in the tradition of OSPAAAL (Organization of Solidarity of the People of Asia, Africa & Latin America) a Cuban political movement with the stated purpose of fighting globalization, imperialism, neoliberalism and defending human rights. The have created a vault of political posters to support freedom fighting world wide and promoted Third World solidarity.

It's time to celebrate the immigrants in our lives!
International Migrant's Day is around the corner, and I want to make sure you know about it.(download poster by clicking here)
One way we can fight the anti-immigrant hate that dominates the headlines, is by celebrating migrants and supporting their fight for justice.
Whether it's someone in your family who recently migrated (or even came a long time ago, like my parents), or a DREAMer youth who you have long admired (like the Trail of Dreams), or even someone who works in your building or your favorite restaurant, that worlwide special day when you can celebrate them is close.
So let's spread the word about it, because folks in this country hardly know it exists and we are coming up on the 10th anniversary!
Hi Everyone! Coming out of the Justseeds annual retreat this past weekend was a renewed commitment from Justseeds to figure out more ways to get images into the hands of organizers, activists, and revolutionists that need and want them. While our long-term vision is an entirely rebuilt website that includes this functionality from the ground up, that's going to take a couple years, so we're moving things around behind the scenes to come up with some solutions in the meantime.
To this end, we're launching a "Downloadable Graphics" category on this blog. Basically, if you click on the "Subjects" heading to the left, and then click "Downloadable Graphics," you'll be brought to a running set of blog entries which include graphics that can be downloaded at high res for your use.
All these images will be copy-left, copy-riot, or Creative Commons, depending on the uploader. Most will be free for you to use as you see fit, but if you can, please let people know the name of the artist (if we've told you!) and that you pulled it down from Justseeds.org. I was rummaging through my digital image piles, and found this graphic of broken bars I originally created back in 1993 for a patch we printed in Wash. DC for the Anarchist Black Cross. I have since re-used it at least a half-dozen times, and as long as their are prisons, my guess is it will still have utility. So I'm passing it along to all our blog readers to reproduce and use, spread it far and wide! Just click HERE TO DOWNLOAD, it is a high-res pdf. Enjoy!

I created this print to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the occupation of Alcatraz by Indians of all Tribes and share them with the community. I designed and printed a poster last year to give away at the sunrise ceremony at Alcatraz. It was a lot of fun giving away poster and people's reaction when i told them they were free. We wanted to do something similar for this years sunrise ceremony on Thanksgiving day. This year we made 300 small posters to give away to the community and an edition of large screen printed posters to share with the organizations that help make the ceremony possible.

At the Justseeds retreat last weekend we discussed the importance of our website providing readers with resources/graphics/downloadable posters on current issues/struggles/etc. We will be working diligently through the next year to expand the website to include more of these kinds of resources.
To get things started I will be sharing my newest design celebrating the persistence of organizing in El Salvador through one of a few important organizations there-the Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front(FMLN). Though I have many questions about whether an electoral strategy can bring about true transformational change I agree with Roberto Lovato who has noted that they "had ended more than 130 years of oligarchy and military rule over this tiny Central American nation of 7 million."
Our friends at Tadamon!, a Montreal-based activist organization, have produced a new poster in their on-going series of propaganda pieces in support of Palestine. Designed by LOKi Design, this new image is quite striking, and we hope to have some here on Justseeds to distribute soon. A high-res pdf of the poster can be downloaded from LOKi here.
The Friendly Fire Collective in the Bay Area have been churning out some cool propaganda of late, most recently the Afghanistan poster seen below. You can download a high res pdf of the poster here. They have a ton more graphics here.
I just got this great poster image from Sue Simensky Bietila in Milwaukee, check it out. This is a high res file, so download and use in your town!:
