Yuri Kochiyama "Consciousness is Power" organic t-shirt

"Consciousness is power. Tomorrow's world is yours to build."—Yuri Kochiyama

One of the most remarkable stories of the Civil Rights movement is that of Japanese American activist Yuri Kochiyama. From befriending Malcolm X (and famously cradling him in her arms as he drew his last breath, captured in one of the most iconic photographs of the era) to a lifetime of advocacy for the liberation and empowerment of Black Americans, Asian Americans, and Puerto Ricans, to activism for nuclear disarmament, the dismantling of the carceral system, and demanding reparations for Japanese American WWII detainees and their children, she was one of the most stunning foremothers we've encountered!
