On one year ago today, Black liberation freedom fighter Assata Shakur passed away in Cuba. Her lifetime of love & struggle remains an inspiration to us all.

Before she passed, our collective had decided to make the 2027 calendar theme "Our Duty to Win" in her honor. The calendar is at the printer now and should be shipping out to people who buy one by late October. Preorder today and don't miss the chance to hang this amazing calendar on your wall.

“It is our duty to fight for our freedom.
It is our duty to win.
We must love each other and support each other.
We have nothing to lose but our chains.”
