Solidarity Pin (End Anti-Asian Violence)
We want to acknowledge the pain and grief our communities are experiencing in response to the attacks on Asians and Asian Americans, especially our elders and women. If we look back in history we know that this isn’t the first time the Asian community has experienced violence. When addressing the attacks on Asian we must also acknowledge the history of violence our communities have endured on the systemic, state, and interpersonal level. We cannot individualize a historically rooted and systemic issue. We need solidarity between the Asian community and other BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color). We need to show up for each other. We want to thank those who are committed to ending violence against Asians and Asian Americans. 100% of proceeds will go towards @AAPIWomenLead.

Defend Land
Defend Land
The inspiration behind the design derives from an Indigenous legend, called “Sleeping Beauty Mountain” that takes place on Mt. Patukan in Kalinga Province of the Philippines. The story is about a woman who lost her loved one during a battle. Rather than leaving Mt. Patukan to find another, she wanted to stay alone believing that he’ll return. She waited so long, that she became one with the mountain ranges as a maiden laying down, mourning from her loss. This story has been told for generations among the people of Kalinga.
The representation of this story along with decades of Indigenous people of the Cordilleras defending and preserving their ancestral lands brought this design together. The recent typhoons that took place in the Philippines, along with man-made changes to the environment, left many lives affected by the aftermath.
For our collaborative project, 100% OF PROCEEDS will go towards typhoon relief funding in Cagayan Valley and Cordillera communities. Our funds will go directly to Bulanao Centro Women’s Organization led by Indigenous peoples of Kalinga who strive to aid local communities of the Philippines.

Special thanks to Aaron Jurell Sarmiento, Robin Aquilizan, Melvin Laso, Kirin Macapugay, and Dale Thongmahavong for the collective effort to make this project.

“Ang Barong Tagalog ay paboritong suot ng mga baboy, buwaya at buwitreng pulitiko. Paborito rin naman namin ang pambansang kasuotan natin, kaya lang kapag may espesyal na okasyon lang tulad ng graduation, kasal o binyagan lang nagagamit. Ngayon, inihahandog namin ang Black Barong tee. Para pwedeng naka-barong ka anumang araw nang hindi nakakatihan o naiinitan –perfect pang-pinta at pang-black shirt day hehe Ang itim na kulay ay base sa aming logo, habang ang disenyong burda ay nakasulat sa baybayin na ibig sabihin ay Gerilya.”
