For my posters I want to reach out to the public and open their eyes to islamophobia and racism in our society, and how it effects minorities. I don't think enough people care about religious discrimination, whereas personally I feel it is hugely problematic to attack whole religions because of a tiny percent of individuals who harm others. I've been aware of other mainstream awareness campaigns but not many for Islam.

| 3 ideas for the type and image poster |
I have used a statistic which is quite dramatic and extreme, I think it is a real eye-opener. The third idea is a very simple illustration of a woman wearing a headscarf, which is a symbol of islam to passers by if they saw her in the street. Women like this get judged every day; it is a hard task to where one and it takes courage. They should be able to wear whatever they want with no ignorant backlash.

Here I've played around with the same statistic again, as I'm not sure which poster to use it in. I think it works quite well with no image at all. The two other posters aren't very strong at the moment, as I think they would need images to get peoples attention, whereas numbers and percentages always interest people.

Creating posters that are solely image is always a struggle, so I've had to use the symbol of Islam to portray my message. Even when using the symbol, it is still quite difficult... this is something I can develop further. I prefer the first idea as the peace symbol is clear, but I think I will make it sufficiently smaller on the poster if I take this forward.
