I wrote a lengthy post on social media outlining the separate but intertwined history of Unarmed with my film 72 Hours, please read it.

I posted the first Unarmed jersey to social media in August 2013 after Trayvon Martin’s killer went unpunished. That’s seven years of this shit. 14 jerseys, so far. We’ll be moving into production soon. For updates on the project visit unarmed.co.
