--The Washington Post
In hundreds of iconic, smart, angry, clever, unforgettable images, Signs of Resistance chronicles what truly makes America great: citizens unafraid of speaking truth to power.
Two hundred and forty images--from British rule and women's suffrage to the civil rights movement and the Vietnam War; from women's equality and Black Lives Matter to the actions of our forty-fifth president and the Women's March--offer an inspiring, optimistic, and visually galvanizing history lesson about the power people have when they take to the streets and stand up for what's right.

About the Author
Reviews
--The Washington Post
"Illuminating. . . . Signs of Resistance includes the work of many movements--woman's suffrage, civil rights, Black Lives Matter--but the creativity and conviction behind each image are a common thread."
--Los Angeles Times
"Siegler has a terrific eye. . . . [If you need] a crash course in how quintessentially American it is to protest, read this. And remember that change does not come about quietly."
--Newark Star-Ledger
"Siegler guides readers through the complex and powerful history of protest in America through the use of iconic symbols."
--EW.com
"When it comes to the history of protest, sassy signs are nothing new. In fact, figuring out how to represent a protest movement with a few snappy words or an incisive image is a crucial component to making a movement work. And when that effort is successful, it can be truly memorable, as shown by . . . the new book Signs of Resistance."
