Minding My Own Small Business
The Native American indigenous peoples have much to teach about respecting this earth, and their spirit inhabits the lands across this country. On the local level in the Concord Massachusetts area, thousands of visitors travel each year from all parts of the globe to pay homage to the historical figures of the 19th century transcendentalists like, Henry David Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and the Alcotts. In developing Jai Designs, I aim to link back in time to underscore the continuity of life with the emphasis on the common bonds we share in a way that will hopefully inspire people to connect with their own place in history/her-story wherever they are. As each generation leaves its imprint of human toils, travails, and triumphs, I offer this design to promote Thoreau's message of peace, rather than militant conquest. The t-shirt also makes a statement to recognize the importance of adapting through, and being agents of change and do whatever we can to create a better world. While this garment has a local theme, its' message is for all place and time and extends far beyond Concord, MA.
