  • 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

That’s what I been sayin’
That’s what I mean
That’s what I been sayin’
All along

You can plow a field put up a cotton gin
You can clear out all them red Indians
The day feels short because the night never ends
You can’t throw a party if you ain’t got no friends

That’s what I been sayin’
That’s what I mean
That’s what I been sayin’
All along

That’s what I been sayin’ all along
You can’t build a house on a hollow log
You can save your prayin’ and your gaddin’ about
You can’t build a union on a broken house

That’s what I been sayin’
That’s what I mean
That’s what I been sayin’
All along

You can print money and let the immigrants in
You can make movies about original sin
You can talk loud and wave bazookas around
But there ain’t no way to keep history out

That’s what I been sayin’
That’s what I mean,
That’s what I been sayin’
All along
