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

Say their names not their status. Every person taken becomes a category first, a status, a case number, a line in an agency statement, and the vigil organizer in the tee reads the full names aloud each week from a list she keeps where the agency printed only numbers. People have names, families, jobs and neighbors. This tee refuses the swap.

Wear it to the vigil, the immigration rally, the city council session on detention, the church remembrance service, and the family dinner where a relative uses the category word. It is a strong gift for a vigil organizer, a rapid response volunteer, a family member who gave the name, and the friend who keeps the list.

The tee is a Comfort Colors 1717, garment-dyed in 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft and evenly colored, with a heavier hand than a novelty tee and three lines that read across a weekly vigil where the names get read. Direct-to-garment. It bonds with the cotton.

Unisex, relaxed, true to size. S through 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. Also Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. It is the read-aloud entry in the immigrant rights collection.

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.

Common questions

Is this the same as our neighbors are not targets? Cousins. That one is the crowd outside the facility; this one is the list of names read inside the vigil.

Would a vigil group order these for the service? Groups do. Every shirt is printed to order. Any mix of sizes, one order.

Which color do people pick? Black and Bay. White for the vigil.

How does the 1717 fit? True to size, relaxed body. Order your usual.

Wear it to: the rally, the courthouse, the vigil, the neighborhood that looks out for its own.

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.
