Martin Luther King Jr. Mugshot | Letter from a Birmingham Jail | red and black stencil | Long Sleeve Jersey

“We know from painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor, it must be demanded by the oppressed.” —Martin Luther King Jr. Letter from a Birmingham Jail

The photo—Dr. King in a dark jacket, holding his booking number—is one of the most iconic images of the Civil Rights Movement. It marks not shame, but courage. It’s a portrait of dignity in the face of injustice, and a reminder that many of the greatest advances in American democracy came from those willing to break unjust laws for a higher moral purpose.
