‘And the Truth is Savage and Dangerous’ — Nawal El Saadawi Quote Tee | Wear Words Black-on-White Literary Tee — Oversized Tee

“They said, “You are a savage and dangerous woman.” I am speaking the truth. And the truth is savage and dangerous.” Nawal El Saadawi gave these words to the condemned narrator of her 1975 novel Woman at Point Zero, drawn from a real woman she met on death row in Cairo — someone punished precisely for telling the truth. In El Saadawi’s telling, the danger others named was simply accuracy, spoken by a woman who kept saying it out loud.

**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).
