Postage Stamp Protest

A series of tiny protest signs to be carried through the mail system.

I dream about (and am trying to help co-create) a more peaceful, just world in which all people and the planet itself are respected and treated with love and care.

I love mail, so I’ve put together this new series of postage stamp “protests” consisting of lick-and-stick protest signs that you can add to the postage stamp area of real mail (as long as you also have enough real postage!) Stick ’em on letters to friends as an act of solidarity or to raise consciousness and inspire action. Also stick ’em on your electric bills, rent checks, other random outgoing mail, and anywhere else you’re inspired to!

Send me an SASE for some stamps:
(visual instructions to the left)

  1. Address an envelope to yourself. Add a stamp. (Optional: $1 donation to cover material costs.)
  2. Put your S.A.S.E. (self-addressed stamped envelope) inside of another envelope and send it to Lea in Oakland. Write “RBG” and/or “SAY THEIR NAMES” and/or “VOTE” in the corner of the envelope, so Lea knows which edition to send you.

    PO Box 10208

  3. Lea will send your pre-stamped envelope back to you with a bunch of stamps inside!
