"If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate agitation are people who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. That struggle might be a moral one; it might be a physical one; it might be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and never will. People might not get all that they work for in this world, but they must certainly work for all they get." – Frederick Douglass

By chance, Martin Luther King and Malcolm X met in person for the first and regrettably, the only time, in Washington, D.C. in 1964. They mutually disagreed, but at this encounter they both spoke out against a filibuster of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Both of these martyred activists' views and visions were essential in the slow, hard work of advancing progress for African-Americans. This is the only photograph ever taken of the two of them together.

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

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."

Poster: Sophie Scholl The True Story of The Woman Who Defied Hitler
$10.00 $8.00 On Sale!
P-SSWWDH
11" x 17" • High Gloss poster stock
Photograph of German college student anti-Nazi activist and member of the White Rose, a secret student group at the University of Munich in Germany during the Nazi regime. The group mimeographed a series of six leaflets against the Nazis, which the Third Reich considered an act of treason against the German state. The students were arrested, interrogated, and within five days brought before a "kangaroo court" ("The People's Court"), charged, prosecuted, sentenced and taken from the courtroom directly to the guillotine to be beheaded. The Nazi's needed to make an example of the White Rioe students. The German government feared that there may have been other Germans clandestinely opposed to the Nazi dictatorship. Under a fascist dictatorship, people are executed by the state for merely leafletting. Sophie Scholl (1923-1944) and the White Rise students' courage in the face of such a regime stands out still today as an example to be honored, remembered and emulated if and when totalitarianism takes over another country.

1" button design commemorates the White Rose group of five anti-Nazi German students at the Universiy of Munich, (1942-43) who wrote, mimeographed and clandestinely distributed a series of six leaflet urging their fellow Germans to oppose Hitler and Nazism. It was considered treasonous to say, print or distribute anything critical of the government, punishable by imprisonment or death.

Book: I Love Myself When I Am Laughing and Then Again When I Am Looking Mean and Impressive: A Zora Neale Hurston Reader.
$15.00
BK-ILM
BK-ILM • Edited by Alice Walker. I love the title of this book almost as much as the book. It sums up the work of Zora Neale Hurston quite well. In her introduction Alice Walker says, “ We love Zora Neale Hurston for her work, first, and then again we love her for herself. For the humor and courage with which she encountered a life she infrequently designed; for her absolute disinterest in becoming either white or bourgeois, and for her devoted appreciation of her own culture, which is an inspiration to us all. Softcover, 313 pages.
