The Tommie Smith & John Carlos Performance Shirt is premium Black-owned athleisure and sports apparel, built for every workout. LIMITED EDITION! Tommie Smith & John Carlos are LEGENDS in Black History and Sports History. In the 1968 Olympics, they raised their fists wearing black gloves on the medal stand to make a statement of Black Pride, Power and Defiance against racism and discrimination. They were vilified for decades afterwards, experiencing death threats and expulsion. Their stance not only created 1 of the most iconic sports images of all time, but has inspired generations of athletes to use their platform for social justice and empowerment. We salute Tommie Smith & John Carlos for their courage, sacrifice and boldness. They are definitely Actively Black! Proceeds from this collection are being donated to both foundations for Tommie Smith & John Carlos. Moisture Wicking Performance Fabric Relaxed Fit 4 Way Stretch Premium Quality Actively Black is a premium Black-owned brand creating athleisure and sports apparel that celebrates culture, community, and excellence.
