“Trans Rights Are Human Rights”
Yellow Springers have been long involved in fighting for social justice. Over the decades, villagers have protested against racism, sexism and war, and advocated for LGBTQ+ rights and environmental protection, among many other issues.
To draw attention to this activist legacy, the Yellow Springs Arts and Culture Commission has created a banner series now adorning the lampposts on Dayton Street and Xenia Avenue downtown.
The banners showcase images of posters that have been used during demonstrations here and elsewhere in the country. The first round of 15 banners went up in early January. Now, there are 28 posters displayed in the exhibit. The posters date from the early 19th century to contemporary posters used as recently as this past summer.
