Show Me the Signs is a benefit auction and exhibition of protest signs created by artists, musicians, actors, and other creatives, with 100% of the proceeds going to the African American Policy Forum's #SayHerName Mothers Network, which works with the mothers and families of Black women, girls, and femmes killed by police to elevate their stories and fight for justice. More than 140 artists and creatives across industries have donated their signs to be auctioned, providing insights into our lived experiences that bear witness to the suffering around us and creatively capturing the change we need.
