  • Poster/Print + Digital Album

    This tatreez-inspired print symbolizing a mill wheel pays homage to Palestinian women, who have played an integral role in resisting the Israeli occupation. Tatreez — a centuries old artful embroidery technique with radical roots — is just one of the many tools they have utilized.

    This is a limited edition blockprint (one of 50)

    Each piece is hand printed onto archival paper (Rives BFK 280g cream 100% cotton), and will be signed and numbered.

    Due to the nature of hand printing, each piece has slight variations from each other and may vary slightly from the image pictured.

    Roughly 7"x7"

lyrics

Everybody ought to treat a stranger right, long ways from home
Everybody ought to treat a stranger right, a long way from home

Careful o' how you treat a stranger, don't you never turn him away
oh and don't you never endanger, never drive him from your gate

Everybody ought to treat a stranger right, long ways from home
Everybody ought to treat a stranger right, a long way from home

Well, all of us down here are strangers, we don't have no home
Don't never hurt, oh your brother, and cause him to pull his own

Everybody ought to treat a stranger right, long ways from home
Everybody ought to treat a stranger right, a long way from home

Well, Christ came down as a stranger, He didn't have no home
Well, he was cradled in the manger, and oxen kept him warm

Everybody ought to treat a stranger right, long ways from home
Everybody ought to treat a stranger right, a long way from home

Well the Wise Men found the stranger, well the child was one day old
They careful in all their treatments, offered him gifts of gold

Everybody ought to treat a stranger right, long ways from home
Everybody ought to treat a stranger right, a long way from home
