Button: "In Germany they first came for the Communists..."
$2.00 $2.00 On Sale!
NQR
(2.25" Button) • "In Germany they first came for the Communists, and I did not speak out - because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews and I did not speak out - because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out - because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Catholics and I did not speak up because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me - and there was no one left to speak out for me." --Pastor Martin Niemoller
This quotation is widely used to voice the need for unity and supporting one another under authoritarian governments and is a popular model for describing the dangers of political apathy. Repression always begins with specific and targeted fear and hatred which soon escalates to encompass more and more targeted groups.

Button: Stop Scapegoating Immigrants
$2.00
SSI
1.5" Square button
Why this button message is so important today: This issue is perennial, for decades in our country it rears its ugly idea that immigrants are less-human than we ourselves. There is an eloquently written piece written by a Canadian entitled "Why I'm Not Signing Your Petition..." worth reading and sharing. Print it out ( http://changethegame.ca/2015/11/19/even-so-im-not-giving-up-on-you/ ) and give it with this button to a friend. The present-day rise in popularity of scapegoating and hating immigrants is a very dangerous red flag signaling the disintegration of two of our greatest qualities – compassion and humanity among reactionary people and their movement. Narcissism and entitlement is the basis of this regression.

(1" Metal Lithographed Button) This is the Original, designed over sixty years ago in 1958 by Gerald Holtom for the English Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament. Inside the back of this button is a very tiny and very brief few words about the origin of the peace sign.

These are only available at the retail price. They are now collector's itms, and will increase in value into the foreseeable future.
We also offer the peace sign on a cloissonne jewelry pin with a clutchback secure attachment on the back. The product code for that is JP-PS58.
Both the button and the jewelry pin are union-made in the U.S. Small enough to wear with anything from the most casual to the most formal.

Button: White Rose symbol
$2.00
WR
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. They were caught, turned over to the Gestapo and five days later beheaded as enemies of the state. Today they are recognized among the courageous heroes of the German resistance to Hitler and Nazism.

AWK
This is a quote from "Poppy" Bush, George Herbert Walker Bush, the former head of the C.I.A. who rode into the White House on the coat-tails of the Reagan Devolution (no, that's not a typo, we mean De, not Re-volution) in 1988. In one of his more ironic bits of campaign appeasing to the pro-peace tenor of the times, George H.W. Bush, Senior actually said: "I want America to be a kinder and gentler nation." Coming from the patriarch of the Bush Crime Family, this statement was the height of irony. 22 years later in 2010, Elton John observed that the United States had become a mean-spirited country, and he hoped it would become a "kinder and gentler" one.

Magnet: You Are The Spark That Started Our Freedom Movement, Thank You Sister Rosa Parks
$4.00
"You Are The Spark That Started Our Freedom Movement. Thank You Sister Rosa Parks." Text is from the song "Thank You Sister Rosa" by the Neville Brothers (1988) • Donnelly/Colt, 1990 • 1.75" x 2.75", button with full magnetic backing, instread of safety pin backing. Photograph of Rosa Parks taken in 1956.
Rosa Parks was the inspiration for the Montgomery Bus Boycott when she refused to move tio the back of a city bus on December 1, 1955. The boycott lasted more than a year, ultimately changing the discriminatory law that required black bus riders to move to the back of the bus if a white rider wanted their seat. The Neville Brothers made a music video of their song in 2004 – you can watch it on YouTube
by clicking here.
In his announcement of the end of the boycott, Martin Luther King said: "The moral arc of the universe is long but it bends towards justice." This quote from M.L.K. s also available as a bumpersticker (search S-MAU)
