Rare Wash Wear Graphic Tee | Prayer Hands w/ Rosary Ending in Handcuffs | Statem

This rare and powerful tee by Wash Wear features a striking sublimation graphic: two Black hands in prayer, gripping a rosary made of miniature Black faces — ending not in a cross, but in handcuffs. This is more than just a shirt. It's a visual protest. The design speaks to a deep truth: that for many Black people, faith has always been a source of strength, resilience, and hope — but it doesn’t shield them from systemic injustice. Even in prayer, they're criminalized. Even in peace, they're restrained. This artwork challenges viewers to confront how Black spirituality and identity are too often met with violence or control, not protection. The message here isn’t anti-faith. It’s a bold critique of a system that disregards humanity, no matter how devout, peaceful, or faithful someone may be. It's a reminder that being religious hasn’t always saved Black lives from chains — literal or societal. This tee is: Size: Medium Pit to pit: 19.5" Length: 30.2" (approx.)
