Product Details

The CNT believed that the position of women in society & the economy was harmful to their goals & ideals & that they needed to be free of the rigid norms of the time, disadvantaged working positions, & rampant prostitution. This was one of the more successful programs the Anarchist Labor Union ran, gaining 20,000 women who identified as Mujeres Libres, Free Women. Many women fought in the revolution & there are many inspiring & often overlooked images like this one in an all too overlooked history of feminism.

You are ordering a 2.25" metal button with a sharp pin back; pin with caution. I assemble these piece by piece by hand, so there may be some variations in alignment of the design & orientation pin. Our quality control process vets every pin's wearability before shipping. If you have any problems with your order, contact us & we will remedy the situation.

Every order comes in recycled/upcycled packaging & may include one or more freebies depending on order size.

Please use a real name (or convincing enough that USPS will deliver) & double-check your address before placing an order; I cannot re-ship an order if my records show it was delivered to the address included with payment. If you observe a potential error in your shipping information, please email me immediately so we can catch it before it ships out.

Ten percent of profits are donated to a rotating portfolio of non-profits & charities; this month, they are Conservation International Foundation 75%, City Harvest 20%, & Crimethinc 5%.

Hundreds of hours have gone into just my art, not to mention the refreshing & reformatting of vintage propaganda, the production of buttons, the assembly of swag packs, & creating a means of distribution. Still, I suspect you & I would feel better if a profit incentive were replaced with goodwill spreading from good intentions. I choose these groups from suggestions & research & to be frank, any remaining profit I come into in my life will go towards scientific & creative research benefitting comrades - science & doing good are what brings me joy. So please, use these buttons as intended as conversation starters & tools of connection.

When learning to create the clothes I could not afford/buy at all, I learned many skills, including stencil making. Of my original designs, they are all either single or multi-color stencils. Interestingly, I learned I wasn't the only person who liked my art. I've been offered as much as 300 dollars for one of my vests & when I printed my art & stencils on buttons for YDSA recruitment, it caused a run on the market for college printing. Here, I put my art & reformatted propaganda of bygone eras onto buttons for you to enjoy. I found buttons, in particular, made good conversation starters. While I'm a punk who isn't averse to patches with four-inch lettering, more people & garments can sport buttons.

Warning: the buttons really are conversation starters!

While I was the president of the YDSA at my college, I agreed with very little of their platforms. I am wholly committed to science & presently, those willing to talk about the various socialist tendencies are also those most inclined to consider alternative theories & evidence contrary to any political dogma, including their own. It is that dialogue that I value; however, publicly, I will say that Capitalism is materially unsustainable & I see many viable alternative ways of life that are realistic within our lifetimes & sparing the ones that would make great action movies; many are leaning toward the umbrella of Socialism.
