The Say Their Name Campaign Kickstarter

08.03.16 posted by Chelsey Lamwatt

Fast Company designer and SPD volunteer, Leslie Xia, recently launched a Kickstarter campaign called the "Say Their Name" project.

Inspired by the #SayTheirName hashtag that has been viral online, Xia and the other designers used design as a creative outlet to bring the movement offline via stickers. The campaign is "a project to cover the streets of NYC and other major cities with stickers of the names of the lives lost to police brutality." The project highlights victim's names including Philando Castile, Sandra Bland, and Tamir Rice.

The Kickstarter gained momentum when it was listed as one of Kickstarter's "Projects We Love" and backed by the CEO and cofounder of Kickstarter, Yancey Strickler. It was fully funded 4 days after the Kickstarter campaign went live and has continued to gain support. On July 28, 2016, it was Kickstarter's Project of the Day.

With over 200 backers so far and only five days left in the Kickstarter, we spoke to Leslie Xia about the project.

Read on to see pictures of the designers involved in the project, as well as some of the stickers in the campaign and our interview with Leslie:
