Keep Calm and Tikkun Olam

Keep calm and repair the world, y'all.

Background:

"Keep Calm and Carry On was a motivational poster produced by the British government in 1939 in preparation for World War II. The poster was intended to raise the morale of the British public, threatened with widely predicted mass air attacks on major cities." (Wikipedia)

"For many modern Jews, the term tikkun olam (repairing the world) has become a code-phrase synonymous with social and environmental action. It is linked to a call for healing the ills of the world." (More about the phrase at Tikkun.org or My Jewish Learning)

Following a nasty political campaign in which he openly fanned various forms of bigotry and misogyny, Donald Trump has become a president that leads in the exact same way that he campaigned. Some of his followers have become emboldened in their hatred and reports of violent attacks and openly racist incidents rose sharply following election day, as though permission had been granted for this type of behavior. Donald Trump has not vigorously repudiated his earlier comments or condemned these incidents, and as he continues careening full steam ahead down a destructive and frightening path, he has made clear there will not be a "reset" from campaign-mode to President-mode.

Let's not respond to hate with hate, but rather be emboldened in our love as we battle bigotry and misogyny. That's where #LoveAndResistance comes from. To start with, I've created some t-shirt designs to show support and raise money for organizations that will need our help under a Trump administration. I know it's not much and I expect this site to morph and change over the next months and years. If you'd like to work together or have ideas you'd like to discuss, please be in touch.

Your heart is a muscle the size of your fist. You'll need them both for #LoveAndResistance.
