I AM Black Legacy — Africa Unisex t-shirt

Before there were countries, there was a continent. Before there were borders, there was a beginning.
This piece carries the silhouette of Africa, the Motherland, the origin point, the place every single one of our stories starts whether we know the exact country or not. Red, black, green, and gold flow up through the outline like blood through a body, and the Rooted in Legacy fist rises from the heart of it, hand reaching up from the roots below, holding tight to everything that came before.
This isn't about one nation. It's about the whole of where we come from, every tribe, every language, every ancestor who was taken from this land and every one who stayed. Madagascar floats just off the coast, because even the pieces that drifted are still part of the whole.
Wear it for the family tree that goes back further than any records show. Wear it for the DNA test that came back "West African" and nothing more specific — because that's not nothing, that's everything. Wear it for the continent that raised us all, long before anyone tried to convince us otherwise.
This is the root of every root. The legacy before legacy had a name.
Know your roots. Wear your truth. Build the legacy.
