We are absolute fans of the creativity on display during demonstrations. We love the power of those placards and the aligned voices of hundreds or thousands of people shouting at the same time. It is something really powerful and it literally would energise you for days! So if you weren't already thinking of going to a demonstration this year, give it a go, mingle with the passionate people standing behind you, see yourself in everyone else and shout it out! All of it!
If you also want to get your banners ready but are not sure what to write on them, don't panic! We have done some research about the best international placard quotes and translated them so you can borrow them! All united around powerful words!
