protest tee - adult

In 2019, children around the world are speaking up for what they believe in and care about – from the school strikes for climate to the student protests to end gun violence, they are fighting for their rights. We want to celebrate these young activists with our “Leaders of Today” collection, marking the 30th Anniversary of the Convention of the Rights of the Child. Photos by Marie Anne Ventoura.

This brand new slogan t-shirt was created by Ailis Barnes and Lois and from Altrincham Grammar School for Girls, as part of Amnesty’s “What’s my slogan” competition. Ailis said “I wanted a slogan that would invite people to ask me why I was wearing it. The words on the shirt can be used to spark many conversations and to invite discussion about topics that are important”

Amnesty International defends individuals who are in immediate danger of serious human rights abuse. They can range from cartoonists, poets photojournalists, graffiti artists and even slogan t-shirt wearers; most of whom have been illegally detained, tortured, or sometimes killed for their activism. Everpress will donate 80% of the profits from this promotional venture to Amnesty International UK Section Charitable Trust, a registered charity, with charity registration number 1051681 and will pay 20% of the profits from t-shirt sales and the event (inclusive of VAT) to Amnesty International United Kingdom Section: Company limited by guarantee registered in England and Wales no. 01735872.
