Some shirts are just filler. This one is a declaration.
Texas Anti-Fascist Union is an anti-fascist protest design for people who are done acting polite about fascism, whitewashing history, and authoritarian nonsense creeping into everyday life. It is for the Texans, transplants, students, parents, punks, organizers, and loud friends who believe solidarity is not a slogan you post once and forget.
The artwork spells it out. The international union of anti-fascists mark carries the Texas chapter identity with Texas and Local 1845 at the bottom, tying the design to the year Texas became a state. Inside the emblem you get a megaphone, broken chains, and raised fists, all with a lightly distressed feel that reads like real movement culture, not sanitized trend merch.
This belongs in the places where people actually live and push back. Think Oak Cliff, Montrose, The Heights, Deep Ellum, South Congress, East Austin, and Third Ward. It fits at coffee runs, school pickup, neighborhood meetings, record shops, campus events, and protest weekends where everyone is texting each other the route and water plan.
It also lands hard around UT Austin, Texas State, Rice, UH, UNT, Texas Tech, SMU, and Texas A&M, where students and alumni are still building community and refusing the whole keep your head down routine. This is anti-fascist protest gear for people who know local action matters.
And yes, you can wear this to a watch party or after a game too. Cowboys, Texans, Spurs, Mavericks, Rockets, Astros, Rangers, Stars, FC Dallas, Austin FC, whatever. Team loyalty and anti-fascist values are not mutually exclusive.
Give it as a gift to the person who always shows up early and leaves late. Grab it as a souvenir of Texas that actually means something. Strange Gang made this for people who want their clothes to say exactly where they stand.
