What's your deal, anyway?

Fair ask. We’ve been creating anti-fascist and progressive art for over 25 years. Chicago made us, but now we’re full-time nomads making art and products that espouse our beliefs in human rights and social justice. We design things for the communities we come from and the ones we fight alongside, with a portion of sales donated to causes we support. We’re stubborn, loud, and allergic to neutrality. No fascists. No excuses.

I don't see the style I want.

Most of our items are available in a wide range of sizes. Additionally, most items are available in various styles. If you see a T-shirt design you like and want it on a hoodie, check the hoodies section or use the search bar. You can also customize the style and color of most designs in the custom section of our website.

Feel free to contact us if you can't find what you're looking for, and we'll do our best to make it happen.

What causes do you give to?

We donate $1 of each item sold to non-profits and organizations supporting progressive, humanitarian, and justice-oriented causes around the world. All donations are automatically calculated and transferred to our charity partner every month to ensure compliance and timely processing.

Stop Doing Racist Shit

Racism does not need a soundtrack. It does not need a hood. It does not need to announce itself with slurs to do damage. Most of the time it shows up as “I didn’t mean it like that,” followed by everyone being asked to move on. We are not interested in moving on.

This hat puts a simple sentence on the front in embroidered lettering: “If you don’t wanna be called racist, don’t do racist shit.” It is not a vibe. It is a practical instruction. If the label bothers you, treat that as useful information. Not about your feelings, about your behavior. The point is not to shame someone into silence. The point is to stop the harm.

Racist shit looks like assumptions about who belongs. It looks like policing someone’s language, hair, name, neighborhood, or body as if whiteness is the default setting. It looks like “random” searches, “just asking questions,” “both sides,” and selective empathy that only activates for people who look familiar. It looks like history being rewritten into comfort. It looks like a joke that lands on one person’s ribs and then gets defended as comedy. It looks like policies that punish certain communities and then act surprised when the outcomes are unequal.

This hat is anti-racist and anti-hate because it refuses that slippery denial. It is anti-fascist because fascism depends on racism to decide who is disposable, who is suspect, and who gets protected. The sentence on this hat blocks that pipeline. It says: you are responsible for your impact, and words have definitions.

Wear it in the places where racism hides behind manners. At work. At family gatherings. In airports. In classrooms. In stores where a clerk shadows someone and calls it “customer service.” The hat does not yell. It just refuses to cooperate with the lie that racism is too delicate to address.

Available in various colors as a snapback, dad hat, trucker, classic 5-panel, or knit beanie, it fits your day-to-day without losing its edge. If someone reads it and gets defensive, they have two options: change the behavior, or keep telling on themselves. Either way, the message stays true.
