Chip Kidd — designer extraordinaire, writer, comics devotee, and CBLDF supporter — has added his voice to the cacophony decrying the attempt to ban Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis in Chicago schools. Recently, Kidd compiled a series of #FreePersepolis memes, calling on people to share them on social media:
Please feel free to use them in whatever social media context you want. Yes, we’re talking about sites like Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc. Thanks!! Also, we ask that you use the hashtag, #FreePersepolis
You can view and download the memes from Kidd’s website here.
