They come for the books first. Then the comics. Then the people who create them. It's not a new playbook - it's just happening again, right now, in libraries and school boards across the country.
This shirt lays it out plain: Read Books, Write Comics, Fight Fascism. Clean typewriter font that doesn't hide what this is about. Because consuming stories isn't enough anymore. We need people creating them too. We need voices that refuse to be silenced and artists who won't back down when the censors come knocking.
Books teach us to think critically. Comics show us how to imagine different worlds. Both of them terrify authoritarians because they put power in the hands of anyone who can pick them up. That's why they're getting banned. That's why graphic novels are being pulled from shelves. And that's exactly why we're not stopping.
A portion of proceeds from every sale goes directly to the ACLU to support their work defending free expression, fighting book bans, and protecting the rights of creators and readers alike. Because the fight against fascism starts with refusing to let stories die.
Wear it to writing groups. Wear it to the library. Wear it to comic conventions or just running errands. Wear it anywhere you want people to know that reading, creating, and resisting aren't separate things - they're all part of the same fight.
