Post-it note protest

Posted on 04. Apr, 2008 by Jonathan Cherry in Advertising

Whenever people feel crime is getting out of hand and something has to be said about it, they seem to protest in public as a natural reaction.

In South Africa we’ve had slow marches to Parliament, car headlight burning protest action and other protest ideas, which last for a couple of hours and then get forgotten.

A protest group in Denmark, in response to recent violent incidents in Copenhagen [see, there's crime even in Copenhagen], have however done something a little different – using normal Post-it notes as a type of removable graffiti.

The post-it notes are placed throughout the city and carry handwritten
statements and reminders such as "only the weak resort to violence".

Something different and to the point. If you understand Danish – check out more here. Or see a video here.
