DEMOCRACY NEEDS YOur COURAGE.
I travelled out to Pile of Bricks , a massive letterpress print shop in Detriot, Michigan run by my BFF and print mentor, Amos Paul Kennedy Jr. I figured with access to his incredible woodtype, all of his presses and Amos's hardcore poster energy, I best make somethin’ cool.
With all the shit going on in Minnesota, the brutality of ICE is always on my mind. I saw a really clever protest poster on the street of St. Joseph and I asked the holder, Lemwa, if I could take her poster idea to the press and she was stoked! The play on words, the HUGE woodtype, and the simplicity of urging folks to stand up for our neighbors and to get mad and get involved. I AM PROUD OF YOU MINNESOTA. Keep fighting the good fight.
I am using my website and Venmo as a direct donation collection point to make it easy for folks who want to donate money that is desperately needed. I am working personally with Fe y Justica— a local group that is buying wholesale food and delivering it directly to families who are afraid to leave home right now.
