Unisex with a relaxed cut, true to size, S to 4XL. Garment-dyed heavyweight tee.

Censored by software. The school filter blocked the county health clinic, the suicide prevention hotline and the encyclopedia entry on the civil rights movement, all in one week, on the basis of a keyword list nobody at the school had ever read. This shirt is for the student who hit the block, and for the librarian who filed the override request every time.

Wear it to the school board meeting on the filter, the library technology committee, the digital rights conference, and the family dinner where a relative says filters keep kids safe. It is a strong gift for a school librarian, a student journalist, a digital rights advocate, and the teacher who prints the blocked page.

Printed on a Comfort Colors 1717 in garment-dyed 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft, evenly colored, and heavy enough to outlast the keyword list. Direct-to-garment. Ink in the cotton, nothing cracks.

Relaxed, unisex, true to size. S to 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. And Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. Also as a hoodie and a sweatshirt. It joins the filter designs on our book bans and libraries page.

Designed and printed to order in the USA. Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron the design.

Would a library technology committee order these? Committees do. Every shirt is printed to order. Any sizes, any colors, one order.

Which color for a digital rights conference? Black and Graphite read clean. White for the school board meeting.

Does the tee run true? Yes. Relaxed body, true to size.

Wear it to: the library board meeting, Banned Books Week, storytime, the bookstore.

Measurements for every size are on the size and fit guide.

Printing and care

Printed to order in the USA, direct to garment: water-based ink goes into the fabric rather than sitting on top, so the print stays soft and does not crack or peel.

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print. More on the fabric and care page.
