A More Perfect Union
A More Perfect Union
In 2022, The Philadelphia Inquirer launched A More Perfect Union, a yearlong special project examining the roots of systemic racism in the US through institutions founded in Philadelphia. Pentagram developed an identity and visual toolkit for the series, along with the print edition of chapter one, included as an insert with the 20th February edition of the newspaper. Pentagram created the wordmark with a font based on the signs used at protest marches in the 1960s, specifically the iconic ‘I am a man’ poster originally designed for the Memphis Sanitation Workers Strike in 1968.
