When ICE began it’s systematic rollout in our cities, targeting our communities and families, like so many I felt outraged and also a bit helpless. In a moment of despair I forgot our collective strength in the face of such hate. I thank my comrades Agustin and Alphonso for coming through with the reminder that we have each other and we are many, coast to coast in all trades. While we all have a responsibility to show up for each other, we also need to show up for ourselves and nourish those things that give us strength. For me that is art and especially collaboration. Alphonso is an incredible illustrator whose work brings that LA, Graffiti, Tattoo inspiration. I had the pleasure of adding color to these images. Shoutout to Agustin for making the connection and taking the work to the streets.

We offer these images and more as stickers and buttons via Pen & Sword. All the funds we generate off of these designs are being directed to producing more stickers and materials and making them available to community organizations. We also offer the designs themselves directly and through incredible collective efforts like the recent call for art by the Justseeds collective.

Please get in touch to request materials or share your sightings of these designs out in the world.
