This shirt represents so much, but was created to bring awareness to a horrible tragedy that happend on June 29th. Jason Washington, a loved father, grandfather, husband, friend, veteran and public servant was murdered on the campus of Portland State University.
Jason Washington’s blood is in part, on the hands of PSU administrators (past and present) and the Board of Trustees members who voted in favor of arming officers simultaneously choosing to ignore the Faculty Senate vote, and the will of the majority of faculty, staff, and students who begged the University not to arm officers. These people also disregarded the abundance of evidence surrounding police brutality, and the current crisis surrounding law enforcement killings of Black people in the United States.
