On the website it says \u201cwe\u201d and \u201cour\u201d a lot, but the truth is, tiny protest is just me. Hi, I\u2019m MJ.<\/p>
I started tiny protest because I like to wear my heart on my sleeve, but I don\u2019t want my feminist T-shirt to be made in a sweatshop. Kind of defeats the purpose, right? And so many of my protest tees ended up at the back of the wardrobe after just a few wears. Not very sustainable, either.<\/p>
So I decided to make my own.<\/p>
tiny protest is a collection of minimalist protest apparel designed for everyday wear and made with people and the planet in mind.<\/strong> Not a loud T-shirt you wear once to a rally, but a favourite basic tee you reach for again and again.<\/p> From \u201cno human being is illegal\u201d to \u201csystem change not climate change\u201d, each design is a way to show what you stand for, start conversations and keep important issues in sight.<\/p>"},"borderRadius":{"id":131581636,"value":"#{text.border.radius}"},"textColor":{"id":131581637,"value":"#442722"},"backgroundColour":{"id":131581638,"value":"#0000"},"truncateHeight":{"id":131581639,"value":null},"padding":{"id":131581640,"value":"6"},"fullWidth":{"id":131581641,"value":"0"},"fullBackgroundColor":{"id":131581642,"value":"#{text.fullBackground.color}"},"published":{"id":131581643,"value":"1"},"conditions":{"id":131581644,"value":"[]"},"template":{"id":139630591,"value":"text"}}},{"id":5198830,"type":"quote","published":1,"size":{"x":12,"y":0},"order":2,"items":[],"properties":{"padding":{"id":131581646,"value":"6"},"quote":{"id":131581647,"value":"A feminist tee made in a sweatshop isn't a feminist tee.
