Hey Twins fans! Braves fan here, coming in peace and solidarity.

I’m not trying to make a statement for clicks. I’m just a baseball fan and a human who knows what his eyes have seen. Watching what’s been happening in Minneapolis has hit me hard, and I felt compelled to make something.

I love baseball. I love graphic design. I love iconography. So I mashed them all together and came up with this Twins inspired shirsey concept. Same familiar look, same visual language you all recognize, but flipped to say exactly how we are feeling.

This isn’t about selling anything. I don’t have the means to make that happen and genuinely if it were something I was able to do I would want all the proceeds to go towards the victims families as there is no way I would feel comfortable trying to profit off of this concept. It’s about solidarity. About saying “we see you” in the only way I know how which is through design.

Much love to Minneapolis. Stay loud. Say safe.

  2. 95% of todays internet users….

    Make post pro ice or anti ice then add tag line saying not to be political or farming clicks…..

    Both sides of y’all can eat crap.

  5. “Both sides” is what people say when they want to feel above a situation without doing the work of understanding it.

    One side is mad on the internet. The other side has actual blood on the ground. Pretending those are equal isn’t neutrality, it’s avoidance.

    And I never said it wasn’t political. Because it absolutely is. I said it wasn’t for clicks, which is obvious to anyone with basic recognition. This is a reimagined shirt concept, not some engagement farming psy-op, and I literally explained where the inspiration came from.

  6. They have gone on record and saying they are complacent and complicit.

    We don’t need t-shirts. We need boycotts. The stadium must be remain empty for the next 5 years

  8. Not sure why this popped up but you Minnesotans are weird. Im guessing its the isolation. Wonder why this isnt happening in other cities? You guys did the same thing with George Floyd and didn’t accomplish shit. Bringing gun to a peaceful protest is fucking dumb. Then to start a fight with officers. The officer should.be 100% charged but why are you guys putting yourselves in that situation? You know the officers are mostly crazy and then you keep poking the bear.

  11. Hey, I think you should take the swoosh off, and post this over here (link below) in the mpls sub on this linkd post where a local screen printer is offering shirt printing services, and someone may want to use your image to create shirts. 👍 Fuck ice

    Minneapolis Protest Shirt Studio： Free Anti-ICE Printing

    Sorry I tried to link a post from the Minneapolis subreddit

  13. Im loving all this artistic expression, but it’s not exactly a shirt that’s going to be seen by anyone. It’s not exactly T-shirt weather. lol

  14. I like the sentiment but the MN Twins are the only MN sports team to not sign in protest of the ICE occupation.

  16. Why can’t we just leave sports to sports? There’s hundreds of other subreddits to post this shit on.
