Give the gift of activist game nights!

• Space Cats Fight Fascism is purrrfect for just about any person who likes games and wants to fight for a better world (or galaxy). Bonus points if they’re super into cats.  

• Co-opoly: The Game of Cooperatives is great for people looking for family friendly game nights!

• STRIKE! The Game of Worker Rebellion is the game by, for, and about the labor movement. Any union organizer or labor advocate would love it. 

• Community Garden is our newest game (and one of my favorites that we’ve put out). It’s a wonderful gift for anyone imagining warmer, sunnier days planting veggies and cultivating community. 

• Rise Up: The Game of People & Power is a fun story-telling board game with two versions in the box: one for game nights and the other for workshops or kids.

Stocking stuffers for rabble rousers

• Beautiful Trouble: A Strategy Card Deck has five mini-games in one box, and can double as a study guide on activism and advocacy. 

• Loud & Proud: A Social Justice Word Game is the gift for someone who wants a simple card game that’s fun, thought provoking, and encourages you to be loud. 

T-shirts for the stylist change makers

• Raised Paw and Hiss Truth To Power are our two popular Space Cats themed t-shirts.

• Power to the Meeple is for the person who falls into the center of the board gamer/social justice nerd venn diagram. 

• Co-ops Rock! is for that gift getter that loves cooperatives and cooperation. 

• And introducing our I’d Rather Be Gardening T-Shirt and Tote Bag, a match for any Community Garden gift! 

Puzzles for the introspective advocates

• Our Rise Up board game also features beautiful illustrations; and we thought the Art is A Hammer piece particularly made an inspiring puzzle. 

• Our Towards a Sustainable Future puzzle is perfect for those that want to sit back, relax, and imagine a more sustainable world. 

For parents raising good trouble makers

• As a parent, I thought the Hiss Truth to Power shirt was too cute not to make into a kids’ size as well. 

• No matter your age, you’re never too young to declare This Is What A Feminist Looks Like!
