I am incensed. I am ashamed. I feel helpless. But I believe that if we have the ability to do something, even if it seems small, that’s worth it. Change isn’t something an individual hero makes; it’s something we create together.

This design is a nonprofit, pay-what-you-choose pattern. Its mission is to provide aid and speak out against the current injustices in the United States. No human is illegal, and absolutely no one should be put in a cage. All proceeds will be donated to organizations providing bail and legal aid to people detained by ICE.

Currently, donations are going to Never Again Action.

We will not stand for fascism. We will not stand for these abuses of human rights. We will not stand for racism. We must stand for justice and positive change, in whatever ways we can.

I’ve chosen to do make the pricing of this pattern tiered; I want it to be accessible, but also leave the option for those who are able to be more generous. I will post updates about donations in order to stay transparent.

Lastly, this is the first pattern of this type I’ve designed. It has been tested (a big thank you to johnsonla and HelianthusLunaria!!!), but if you notice an error please let me know and I will fix it ASAP. You can always contact me with questions.
