The story behind this shirt

Vance Muse, who secured the Christian American Association's campaign to popularize the term "right-to-work" in the early 1940s, was described by his own grandson as a white supremacist and antisemite who fought unions for pay, not principle. A Christian American Association pamphlet from the Arkansas campaign warned that defeating the measure meant "white women and white men will be forced into organizations with black African apes," and the Arkansas Farm Bureau backed the campaign on the grounds that organized labor was "trying to pit tenant against landlord and black against white." The sticker says "Sold in 1940s Arkansas as a color line." and carries the address of the Right-to-Work Laws page on this site, where the claim sits with its evidence, the best case against it, and the answer. It is sized for a laptop lid or a water bottle. Print partner and vinyl stock stay pending until a physical sample has been checked.
