A stunning art image "tattooed" into the fabric of these specially made shirts. For more information and SHIRT SIZING CHARTS please see Shirt and Sizing Charts.
Steve Biko is a martyr of South Africa. His life was spent instilling pride and a sense of identity in fellow Blacks, held in subjection by the apartheid policy of the white government. Not since Hitler’s Nuremberg laws has any community suffered under so monstrous a burden of racial regulations.
The quotation on the scroll he holds in the icon is how he defined "Black Power" during a court trial in 1976. The Greek inscription by his head reads "Holy Steven."
