$44.00
sold out

SET OF ALL 8 CARDS IN DISCOUNTED BUNDLE, INCLUDING ONE EACH OF:

  • Thank you for sharing your organizing wisdom!

  • Skillful facilitation creates space for transformation.

  • I’d rather not be phone banking, but I’m glad I’m phone banking with you!

  • I’d rather not be door knocking, but I’m glad I’m door knocking with you!

  • Grateful to be in this struggle for liberation with you.

  • Building alternatives to systems of extraction & control is difficult & heartbreaking & also powerful & totally worth it.

  • You’re my movement crush!

Eight 4.25 x 5.5in (A2) letterpress printed folded cards with eight white cotton envelopes. Comes in a kraft box—and the bundle is cheaper than buying all 8 cards individually!

How it’s Printed
Letterpress printed using hand-set antique lead type & vintage cuts (printing blocks) of flowers. Card backs are printed with photopolymer plates.

About this Set of Eight Cards
Want to be prepared for lots of different types of appreciation & witnessing of the folks you organize with? Here’s a set of all eight of the Lead & Roses cards, with envelopes, in a sweet kraft box to keep them nice until you’re ready to use them.

About Lead & Roses
The phrase “bread and roses” is usually attributed to the 1912 Lawrence, Massachusetts textile strike & originated in a James Oppenheim poem:

“Our lives shall not be sweated
from birth until life closes;
Hearts starve as well as bodies:
give us bread, but give us roses!”

Bread & Roses has been used in many social movement contexts as a metaphor for the importance of art, beauty, & rest as critical forms of sustenance. Lead & roses gives this phrase a letterpress pun: much of the type used in hand-setting & printing these cards is made of lead.

These are cards to bolster the hearts of organizers so that they remain deeply invested in working for collective liberation for as long as it takes.
