‘The Function of Freedom is’ — Toni Morrison Quote Tee | Wear Words Typographic Statement Tee — Oversized Tee

“The function of freedom is to free somebody else.” Toni Morrison said this to the graduating women of Barnard in 1979, urging them to reach back for the women coming up behind them. In her telling, freedom is a debt: you pay it forward by freeing someone else, or you forfeit the thing itself.

**AS Colour 5082 “Faded Bone” — Oversized Tee (Cream finish).** 100% carded cotton, heavyweight 240 gsm, garment-dyed — each tee fades a little differently, so no two are identical. Oversized, boxy relaxed fit, dropped shoulders, wide twin-stitched ribbed neck, side-seamed, pre-shrunk (size down for a less roomy look). Care: machine wash cold inside-out with like colors, do NOT bleach, do NOT tumble dry (line dry in the shade to protect the garment dye), cool iron inside-out (never iron the print).
