ILlEGAL typing
Immigrant voices across the U.S. were being shut down—protests broken up, signs confiscated, people deported. All for speaking up.
So Monotype created Illegal Typing: a typeface built from the actual strokes of protest signs police tried to erase.
It turned typography into an act of resistance—used to protest right outside ICE offices, with QR codes that let anyone download the font.
And every time someone used it, they helped fund legal aid for the very people behind those lines.
