Poster for SCLC reading "Injustice Anywhere...a threat to Justice Everywhere"

"A black ink on a red-orange poster board with a small picture of Martin Luther King, Jr. at the top left and Joseph Lowery at the top right. The poster reads: [SCLC / INJUSTICE / Anywhere... / a threat to / JUSTICE / EVERYWHERE / M. L. KING]." -Smithsonian

The contrast between the typography and background is eye-catching, enhancing the visual appeal of the design. The harmonious blend of various typefaces adds a dynamic element, while the background, adorned with subtle watermarks and textures, infuses the piece with more character. Additionally, the depiction of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Joseph Lowery in a sticker-like style introduces an element of playfulness to the poster.
