The Incredable History!

The Black Panther Party (BPP) was founded in 1966 by Huey Newton and Bobby Seale in Oakland, California, with a mission to address police brutality, systemic racism, and economic inequality faced by African Americans. The party initially focused on community policing and monitoring police activities through armed patrols, garnering attention for its advocacy of self-defense and resistance against racial injustice. The iconic image of Black Panthers carrying firearms and wearing black berets became synonymous with their commitment to protecting their communities and challenging oppressive systems.

The Black Panther Party also had a strong emphasis on social programs, including free breakfast programs for children, health clinics, and educational initiatives. However, the group faced significant government scrutiny and criticism, leading to internal conflicts and external pressures. The original BPP disbanded in the late 1970s, but its legacy endures as a symbol of resistance, empowerment, and the fight for civil rights during a turbulent period in American history.

The slogan "Free Huey" emerged as a rallying cry within the Black Power movement, particularly in the late 1960s and early 1970s, advocating for the release of Huey P. Newton, co-founder of the Black Panther Party. Newton's arrest on charges of killing a police officer (later overturned) galvanized support for the Panthers and symbolized resistance against systemic oppression and police brutality faced by African Americans. The slogan encapsulated broader demands for justice, empowerment, and liberation, emphasizing solidarity and defiance against racial injustice in America.

Care Guide

Keep your apparel looking great for ages:

  • Printed apparel can be machine-washed cold, inside-out on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and like colors.
  • Use non-chlorine bleach only when necessary. You shouldn't use any fabric softeners or dry-clean the items.
  • Printed apparel can be tumble-dried on a low cycle, but hang-dry works best.
  • When it comes to ironing, use cool iron inside-out.
  • Don't iron the print.

We use the latest printing technology to offer a wide variety of products and color options. We use high-quality inks that won't fade for a long time if taken care of properly.

Keep in mind that garment blank manufacturer's care instructions (tags) don't take into consideration the printing process. So we suggest following the care instructions on this page to learn how to take care of your printed garments properly.

Follow these instructions carefully to avoid fading and cracking of the print, and shrinking of the garment that can occur if you wash or dry it on a high setting. Pro Tip: For ANY garment, it is especially wearing to roughly tumble dry them with heavier items (blankets/towels/jeans/etc).

  • A Culture Vulture Free Zone

    Look, we're all for inclusion and the diverse celebration of Black History. However, it has become increasingly common for NON Black-owned companies to sell Black Culture while also falsely claiming to be Black-owned. This practice of cultural appropriation is not only dishonest but also disrespectful to the Black community. By profiting off of Black culture without actually supporting or empowering Black-owned businesses, these companies perpetuate systemic inequality and contribute to the erasure of Black voices and perspectives. It is important for consumers to do their research and support authentic Black-owned businesses that prioritize social justice, equity, and circulation of the Black dollar; rather than those that simply capitalize on the latest cultural trends.
