In this research we carry out a qualitative approach to the linguistic landscape from a gender perspective, focusing on the demonstrations that took place in Seville on the afternoon of 8 March 2024. The demonstrations are a method of struggle with a long history in feminism that allows to make society participate in the demands of this movement. Taking José Medina's concept of epistemic activism as a basis, we analyze the linguistic landscape of the demonstrations held in Seville, convinced of the semiotic value of the discourses present in the streets this day to know the paths along which the movement evolves and to show how the feminist perspective promotes an epistemic activism of resistance.
