"On June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn on Christopher Street (the hub of the NYC Gay Community in the 1960s), things turned violent after a few LGBTQ people were arrested on questionable charges, handcuffed, and very publicly forced into police cars on the streets of NYC. The LGBTQ community was fed up with being targeted by the police and seeing these public arrests incited rioting that spilled over into the neighboring streets and lasted several days. These events have been collectively described as a “riot,” a “rebellion,” a “protest,” and an “uprising.” Whatever the label, this was certainly a watershed moment in LGBT history. Many eyewitnesses have identified Marsha P. Johnson as one of the main instigators of the uprising and thus, some have recognized her as the vanguard of the gay liberation movement in the United States."

“It is not enough to be quietly non-racist, now is the time to be vocally anti-racist." 

Heartbroken and know there is so much work to do.  We are in Provincetown and did have peaceful protest, but we stand in solidarity with all the peaceful protestors across the globe.  We are launching another charity t-shirt, 100% of profits will be donated equally between The Bail Project, Poor People's Campaign, NAACP Legal Defense Education Fund, Mijente, Color of Change, and The Citizenship Education Fund.  Further information on the charities follows.

Today, I wear a black t-shirt with a pink triangle and the words “SILENCE = DEATH” to honor Larry Kramer, a man who inspires me to be unapologetically angry, and unapologetically myself. 

Knowing it's going to be a challenging season for so many, throughout May, we are donating 100% of net profits from our Ptown collection equally amongst; the Soup Kitchen In Provincetown - SKIP, Helping Our Women, Outer Cape Health Services, & the AIDS Support Group of Cape Cod.  Now’s your chance to get that Ptown graphic you’ve wanted in your size and color and know that you're supporting the community you love.
