Occupy Love

The Idea

I was inspired by an idea to create a unifying logo for the Occupy protests that was not aggressive and represented the peaceful nature of the movement. In light of all the incidences of officer brutality, I believe this imagery would remind both officers and protestors that OWS is about respect.

The Specifics

The 99% does not want everything, just what is owed to us. The 99% represented by the protestors are no doubt angry and frustrated, but the movement in itself is about respect and equality. I would use the funds to mass produce and distribute the image to the largest possible audience to remind everyone; protestors, law enforcement, and the 1% we are protesting; that the goals of this movement can be achieved peacefully.
