Dear Friend,
Solidarity is action that comes from the shared concerns and goals of people in a movement. Solidarity is more than support. The foundation of solidarity is kinship—standing together against not only sexism but racism, classism, and all other oppressive systems. Today we are faced with the duty to unite against all forms of hate, against all forms of violence. We understand what it feels like to be left behind, left out, forgotten about. And we know that you understand this feeling as well. We vow to break this cycle.

We call upon the cooperative, compassionate, collaborative, empathetic, altruistic, open-minded part of us, for our humanity and kinship to manifest during this unprecedented time. We call for the best of us to come forward.

In solidarity. Join us.

Denim Day 2021 is Wednesday, April 28th!


** Denim Buttons: In Solidarity
------------------------------------------------------------

From its inception, Denim Day has always been about bringing people together - in solidarity - supporting survivors, and spreading awareness and education. Make a social statement with your fashion statement, an early and long lasting message of the campaign, is often used to encourage individuals to wear denim with purpose. Early on, Peace Over Violence added signature buttons as an additional fashion statement, adding to the outward commitment people made leading up to and on Denim Day. Throughout the years, the buttons have taken on different shapes and sizes, and included different messaging to meet the times, but always with the intention of proclaiming support and sparking conversation.
