Fresh off of the TELFAR FW2019 “COUNTRY” show -– presented in celebration of Black Future(s) Month and in partnership with Black Lives Matter Arts+Culture — is a limited edition T-shirt as seen on Telfar on the runway, available today on #BLMShop.

Black Lives Matter Arts+Culture X Black Futures Month is dedicated to the theme of afro-futurism, inspiring us to envision, build, and define the Black future, where Black people are liberated.

Throughout February the Black Futures Month national #BlackFutureIs PSA campaign will launch and feature powerful messages from celebrities, progressive activists and influencers which dares us to center love, liberation and freedom. BLM supporters can further enjoy special Black Futures Month content, quotes, and highlights on BLM social platforms and www.blacklivesmatter.com.

About Black Lives Matter Global Network: Founded in 2013 by Patrisse Cullors, Alicia Garza, and Opal Tometi — in the wake of the acquittal of Trayvon Martin’s murderer — Black Lives Matter Global Network is a chapter-based, member-led organization in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada, whose mission is to build local power to intervene in violence inflicted on Black communities by the state and vigilantes.

We support the lives of the Black, queer and transgender communities, the disabled, the undocumented, those with records, women, and all Black lives along the gender spectrum. By combating and countering acts of violence, creating space for Black imagination and innovation, and centering Black joy, we are winning immediate improvements in our lives. From pop culture to design to fine arts, artists inspired by #BlackLivesMatter understand that creativity transforms politics, transforms our individual relationships, and transforms the world.
