Inspired by a bunch of my constituents
who were arguing yesterday on my Facebook page –
plus, of course,
the wonderful breath of fresh air in a stale government,
the Honorable US Representative ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ (D‑NY) –
who I consider an honorary FLOMMIST because she acts like one –
and
her AWESOME performative “TAX THE RICH” gown worn to this year’s MET BALL –
designed by AURORA JAMES, founder of NY shoe and handbag line BROTHER VELLIES and FIFTEEN PERCENT PLEDGE, which encourages retailers to dedicate 15% of their shelves to products made by Black-owned businesses –
I decided I WANT ONE TOO !!
tho as an ANGRY MODERN ARTIST i went with “EAT THE RICH” –
designed using BAUHAUS LETTERING by the legendary LYONEL FEININGER for a 1923 exhibition portfolio of MODERN ART –
EACH UNISEX SHIRT IS MADE TO ORDER –
which is sort of GREEN, sort of
and
50% OF PROFITS from the sale of our EAT THE RICH shirts will be donated to BLACK ARTIST FOUNDRY in SACRAMENTO.
I recommend going for a LARGER SIZE than you normally would –
EAT THE RICH shirts are AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY thru FLOMMHAUS
ORDER HERE
or HERE
or HERE TOO.
