Free Speech Frederick Douglass Censorship Quote T-Shirt
Freedom of speech and assembly are both under grave attack today. In 1860, Frederick Douglass spoke in Boston about this same challenge: “To suppress free speech is a double wrong. It violates the rights of the hearer as well as those of the speaker.”
On the front of this t-shirt, you will find a quote from this important speech. On the back, spread more knowledge about this American hero with a short biography about him, his newspaper "The North Star" and another quote from this gathering:
"Frederick Douglass was born into slavery. At the risk of death, he taught himself, and many others, to read and write. Once free, he continued to lead, establishing the newspaper "The North Star" and advising both presidents Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson. In his plea for freedom of speech, Douglass said, "The Founders valued free speech above all; it is the key to making society better, preventing tyranny, and ending slavery. No right was deemed by the fathers of the Government more sacred than the right of speech."

I give wanted to give this a 4 instead of a 5 because these Basic DARK T0shirts run unexpectedly SLIM or Narrow. Which is great if you do not have a potbelly, but I have a paunch. It isn't the shirt's fault that I've got a beer belly. The design and shirt itself is a quality cotton shirt. The color is more of a deep purple, but still a very pretty color. The Basic DARK T-shirts run a bit SLIMMER than the Basic Ts. The neck is a fraction narrower (or seems to be narrower) also. I'm a paunchy middle-aged woman and my neck is 12 inches (31cm) thick and the neckline fell about the same as in the photo of the man, and I had the desire to tug it a bit. So if you're a thick necked man or like loose shirts, be aware these are slimmer shirts. Once I get rid of my lockdown paunch it'll look great. The shirt washed well in cold water with no apparent bleeding. We don't have a dryer, so it hung dry. Did not shrink. Love the colors and the design. The design looks smaller on my shirt than it does on the model on-line. But still, it looks good on the shirt. The printing looks as it does on the model, just the size seems fractionally smaller. Washed garment in cold water, hung dry and design appeared unaffected.

I'm wearing this as I type... It's fab! Lovely quality. Soft material, perfect fit, nice and warm (It is very cold here, I live at the top of a hill and the wind is brutal in winter). Couldn't be happier with this. My Girlfriend really likes it as well - always a bonus! I was really impressed by how the printing turned out - my photo's don't do it justice. This is a complex design with a lot of colour variations but the finished article is really impressive. I couldn't be happier with how this has turned out. This is also one of my first designs to have been purchased by someone else (thank you so much!) I'm really curious to know what they think of the finished product...
