The George Floyd Story
George Perry Floyd Jr. (October 14, 1973 – May 25, 2020) was an African-American man who was murdered by a police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, during an arrest after a store clerk suspected Floyd may have used a counterfeit twenty-dollar bill, on May 25, 2020. Derek Chauvin, one of four police officers who arrived on the scene, knelt on Floyd's neck and back for 9 minutes and 29 seconds. After his murder, protests against police brutality, especially towards black people, quickly spread across the United States and globally. His dying words, "I can't breathe," became a rallying cry.
Born in Fayetteville, North Carolina, Floyd grew up in Houston, Texas, playing football and basketball throughout high school and college. Between 1997 and 2005, he was convicted of eight crimes. He served four years in prison after accepting a plea bargain for a 2007 aggravated robbery in a home invasion.After he was paroled in 2013, he served as a mentor in his religious community and posted anti-violence videos to social media.In 2014, he moved to the Minneapolis area, residing in the nearby suburb of St. Louis Park, and worked as a truck driver and bouncer. In 2020, he lost his job as a truck driver, and then his security job during the COVID-19 pandemic.

THIS SHIRT IS AVAILABLE FOR UNISEX
Order your cause inspired T-shirt with the trademarked classic Youmanitarian logo printed on a shirt! Your cause inspired design will be added to the product by the process of sublimation.
If you're unsure what sublimation is... it essentially dyes the item. We cannot print lighter colors on darker surfaces (white on black), only darker colors on lighter surfaces (black on white). NO WHITE INK WILL BE PRINTED.
Technically, it's "the process of turning a water-based dye ink into a gas that bonds with polyester fabrics or other polymers. It dyes the polymer molecule, resulting in a vibrant graphic that never washes off." The design you see and will get is permanent and adds no additional layer to the outside of the item.
Please keep in mind that the lighter the polyester count, the more "vintage" and faded the image will look.
Please note that as these are hand-printed, very slight color, alignment, and image quality variation is to be expected, however all items are printed to the best of our ability.
