About this item: - Super Comfy Material & Fit - Fabric is a lightweight & very soft cotton-poly blend - Modern Fit - Unisex Sizing - Care instructions included - While any fabric shrinkage should be minimal (if at all), we suggest you wash inside-out on cold & either line dry or with low heat so you can get the absolute best out of your tee - SCOBAR products are hand-printed in Small Town USA, run by an artist and a fun group of friends. We give special care to every shirt. Like all other designs by SCOBAR, this one was hand-drawn with love. I tried to capture some of the emotion of the quote by using a thick paint marker to write it out and give it a raw, unrefined feel.

Product Description: Quote by Martin Luther King Jr. "Let us move now from the practical how to the theoretical why: Why should we love our enemies? The first reason is fairly obvious. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction. So when Jesus says, "love your enemies," he is setting forth a profound and ultimately inescapable admonition. Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies—or else? The chain reaction of evil—hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars—must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation." Martin Luther King Jr. from "Loving Your Enemies" Sermon delivered on Christmas Day 1957 Original artwork created by SCOBAR.
