We Believe sign in Arlington, Virginia, October 2020

In 2020 issue-based yard signs emerged in neighborhoods across the United States supporting multiple left-wing movements commonly with a Black Lives Matter theme. Stemming from the original "Kindness is everything" sign with the introductory line “In this house, we believe:” many iterations begin more succinctly “We believe” after which a list of movements is enumerated often starting with Black Lives Matter. An even stack of colored lines of correlated phrases stand in vibrant contrast to one another against a black background.

According to Bonnie Kristian, partisan political signs for the 2020 election were largely passed over in favor of social justice signs. The Kindness is Everything sign originated as a white woman's show of opposition to Trump on his first day in office.
