cardboard signs
Homeless plea displays
Cardboard signs are handmade notices written on flattened cardboard, associated with two distinct contexts.
Homeless people hold them requesting money or food: Anything helps. God bless.
Protesters carry them at rallies and marches, often with slogans or demands.
The material suggests improvisation, urgency, and lack of resources—a message made from whatever was at hand.
