The artist created these prints in response to the legislative attacks against trans youth being seen in many of the States across the US. The eagle which is emblematic of the United States of America and the former US motto E. Pluribus Unum - out of many, one, is meant to send a the message that America needs to come together and protect trans kids.
This eagle print features a letterpress cut from the 1860's made by L. Johnson & Co of Philadelphia, PA; the eagle design, with empty space for text, was originally used for Civil War recruitment posters. 70% of the sale price will go to "The Human Rights Campaign" who envisions a world where every member of the LGBTQ+ family has the freedom to live their truth without fear, and with equality under the law.
