We’re less than four weeks away from the election—and any reminder you can give to others to vote is needed. And now, you can give the reminder and look hella good doing it.

We at TBI just learned of a new partnership between three Bay Area companies: Oakland-based fashion retailer Owl N Wood, San Francisco-based agencies Brandi Moore Agency, and JE Model. They came together to launch the campaign the “All Power to the People VOTE” T-shirt (Owl N Wood and JE Model Management are both Black-owned businesses). The t-shirt is part of the All Power to the People Project, a collaboration between Owl N Wood and the Dr. Huey P. Newton Foundation. The foundation is headed by Fredrika Newton, whose late husband was Huey Newton, was the co-founder of The Black Panthers. Fredrika Newton is featured in the campaign.

The black and white tee is inspired by the Black Panthers Party, which originated in Oakland in 1966.

With every purchase of the VOTE tee, 5% of the sale price to the Movement Voter Project and an additional 2.5% of profits will go to the Dr. Huey P. Newton Foundation at the end of each calendar year. The unisex tee retails for $38 and is available on Owl N Wood.

You can preorder the shirt here.
