Freedom's child
You have been denied too long
Fill your lungs and cry rage
Step foward and take your rightful place
You're not going to grow up
Knocking at the back door
For you there will be no travelling
Third class enforced by law
With segregated schooling and sitting on the floor
The rivers of our land, mountian tops
And the shore
It's yours, you will not be denied anymore

COLLECTOR'S ITEM 17" x 23" extra heavy weight 100 pound matte finish premium quality poster stock. from (now closed) Northland Poster Collective
The sentiments of this poster are as true today as they were over eighty years ago when first written. Ricardo Morales Levins' beautiful hand cut lettering of this explanation by the legendary American troubadour Woody Guthrie. Offset lithograpohy, union printed, of course.
Woody Guthrie wrote the words on this poster back in the 1930's. Here is what the artist, Ricardo Morales Levins had to say about why he created this, his first poster for what would become the legendary Northland Poster Collective in Minneapolis, Minnesota, three decades ago:
"A philosophy of integrity from a North American folk hero. This was my first poster because it summarized what I wanted to do. I looked for the quote in small-town bookstores while hitchhiking and copied it out once I found it. I didn't think anyone would want a poster that wordy. Boy, was I wrong!"
This poster went on to become the best-selling poster in the Northland Poster Collective's catalogue (1979-2009). These prints are not reprints, but the original offset lithographed prints from Northland Poster Collective, while supplies last.

Poster: I Am No Longer Afraid
$18.00
P-IANLA
Photograph by Halla Hammid, words by Deena Metzger, poster design by Shiela Levrant de Bretteville. (Wingbow Press, 1989). 24"x17" The poster has text in the upper left part of it, which reads: "I am no longer afraid of mirrors where I see the sign of the Amazon, the one who shoots arrows. There was a fine line across my chest where a knife entered, but now a branch winds about the scar and travels from arm to heart. Green leaves cover the branch, grapes hang there and a bird appears. What grows in me now is vital and does not cause me harm. I think the bird is singing. I have relinquished some of the scars. I have designed my chest with care given to an illuminated manuscript. I am no longer ashamed to make love. Love is a battle I can win. I have a body of a warrior who does not kill or wound. On the book of my body, I have permanently inscribed a tree."
