"Death is not justice" - posterfortomorrow launches competition for anti-death penalty posters

Very exciting news!

An organization in France called posterfortomorrow is holding a poster-design contest around the theme that "the death penalty is not justice. I don’t want it done in my name, my country, or our world".

Which is what we've been saying all along. So this sounds like a fabulous opportunity to show the world we mean business!

10/10/10 is the World and European Day against the death penalty. The organization will be holding 100 exhibitions of winning designs in a 100 cities on this day.

Pretty cool, huh?

I'm not gonna write any more info about this because you can find all the details here:

At the website you can download the entry requirements and find out everything else you need to know :)


Both myself and ScofieldBurrows are planning to enter, and we thought you guys might be interested! It's an amazing opportunity to make a real difference in this world, and to have your work viewed by hundreds of other like-minded people. Furthermore, école intuit/lab in Paris will award three students, as chosen by the jury, with a free workshop on graphic design. The 10 most outstanding designs, as chosen by the jury, will be made part of the permanent collection of the prestigious design museums. More design museums are expected to join in the next months. How cool is that?


Thanks to the Texas Moratorium Network for the information.
Be sure to tell us what you think and whether you plan to enter!

New Video by member suntanlotion!

This great video was sent to us by member suntanlotion. We put it on YouTube but unfortunately they removed the audio and so it just isn't the same. Thanks YouTube. We did an audio swap with a song from their approved library which wasn't so bad, but it's still not as good as this version.

But here it is! Suntanlotion had this to say about her video:

"Just wanted to create a parallel between the loss of a loved one experienced by both the family of a victim and the family of an executed criminal. Neither deserves to lose a loved one but we seem to forget about the family of the condemned criminal. This video was inspired by the words of the daughter of a man executed in Texas a few years ago: 'They're killing him for killing someone else... So who do we get to kill?' It features some clips from the TV series Prisonbreak, music by Queen, and clips filmed by me and a friend"

We think this video is brilliant! Well done suntanlotion :)
