Now with the
"No Kardashians" parking violation signs, we have reached new and interesting places with signs demarcating (insert favorite problem)-free zones. If only the American Flag signified a fascist-free zone.
Dozens of "No Catcall Zone" signs have been popping up in New York City to keep unwanted jeers at bay during International Anti-Street Harassment Week.
Feminist Apparel, a nonprofit feminist clothing company, has claimed credit for the more than 50 street signs that have been spotted in Manhattan and Brooklyn this week.
"We hope to get at least one sign up in each borough by the end of the week as street harassment and catcalling is obviously a universal issue not contained to any one neighborhood,"the group said in a statement.
The campaign is part of a collaboration with Philadelphia's guerrilla feminist collective Pussy Division.
This "No Catcall Zone" sign is part of a project to end street harassment. Feminist Apparel clothing nonprofit has taken responsibility for them, and plan to put up more.
Feminist Apparel plans to "sneak up" a few more signs throughout the week, as well as sticker forms of the designs.
The signs have appeared near the Williamsburg Bridge, Chinatown and other parts of the two boroughs.
