DOTM Jan 2023: La Voz de la Mujer Femme T-shirt

Our Design Of The Month for January 2023 on a t-shirt, fitted for women and femmes, made of 100% organic cotton, and supporting grassroots labour unions in South Asia. 

It celebrates La Voz de la Mujer ('Woman's Voice'), the world's first explicitly anarchist-feminist newspaper whose first issue was published in Buenos Aires on 8 January 1896. The newspaper advocated for class struggle, women's liberation and sexual freedom with its first editorial declaring:

“fed up as we are with so many tears and so much misery; fed up with the never ending drudgery of children (dear though they are); fed up with asking and begging; of being a plaything for our infamous exploiters or vile husbands, we have decided to raise our voices in the concert of society and demand, yes, demand our bit of pleasure in the banquet of life.”

Design by Buenos Aires-based artist and tattooist, Meri Prodan aka Poxi, represents these brave women's fight by incorporating their newspaper's name "La Voz de la Mujer" into a drawing of an angry woman's face. The back print is complemented by a smaller, more subtle front print showing the same woman's mouth saying “Ni Dios, Ni Jefe, Ni Marido” ("No God, No Boss, No Husband"), one of the slogans used by the women behind the newspaper at the time.
