‘It Was a Rebellion, it’ — Stormé DeLarverie Quote Tee | Wear Words Black-on-White Statement Shirt — Oversized Tee

“It was a rebellion, it was an uprising — it wasn’t no damn riot.” Stormé DeLarverie was the butch lesbian whose scuffle with police may have lit the fuse at the Stonewall uprising in June 1969, and she spent her later years correcting the record. She insisted on rebellion over riot because “riot” cast the crowd as criminals rather than people refusing to be arrested for the crime of existing.

**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).
