Sažetak
This paper presents a Critical Discourse Analysis of a group of randomly selected protest signs from the Women’s March on Washington. A total of 46 signs selected from three different sources were analyzed qualitatively, and three protest signs were singled out for a detailed analysis. The aim of this was to show which linguistic and visual techniques were used to convey the messages to the audience, along with emphasizing the role context – situational and social – often has in those situations. The study showed that there is a heavy reliance on visual techniques, that the topics covered differed somewhat from the ones outlined by the movement, and that in a group with many individual causes messages centered around unity and solidarity show up regularly.
