#actionofthemonth
On January 1st, 2025, Kantamanto Secondhand Clothing Market in Accra, Ghana, the largest secondhand market in the world, responsible for recirculating millions of items from around the globe every week, caught on fire and burnt to the ground. Thousands of businesses have been destroyed. Millions of dollars of supplies and tools are lost. Daily livelihoods gone.
support shado
We’ve launched a t-shirt campaign to support our work at shado.
Through buying a t-shirt, you are directly supporting shado’s radical storytelling, including:
Our mentorship programme for first-time writers
Commissioning of writers and creatives working at the frontline of social justice movements around the world
The ability for shado to amplify and support direct actions and work being done by organising groups on the ground
Importantly, your contribution will allow us to keep all of our content free: buying a t-shirt is therefore a move of solidarity which also makes you a key part of the overall radical media ecosystem. With countless independent platforms forced to close down or move their work behind a paywall in order to exist, this t-shirt is not only a chance to wear your values but also to enable us to stay independent, radical and free of charge.
Two designs featuring artwork by Fernanda Peralta and Sabrina Gevaerd. All t-shirts are available in short and long sleeved versions. Grab yours now!
