The Jackie Ormes Tee

Say hello to Jackie Ormes, the first Black woman cartoonist to leave her mark on the comic strip world—bold, brilliant, and always ahead of her time! ✍🏾✨

In the 1930s-50s, while others were playing it safe, Jackie was busy using her art to entertain and educate. Her characters, like the fashionable and fearless Torchy Brown and the quick-witted Patty-Jo ‘n’ Ginger, didn’t just make us laugh—they made us think. Through her comics, Jackie tackled issues like racism, politics, and social justice, all while serving Black excellence on every page.

But that’s not all! Jackie Ormes was also a style icon, designing dolls that reflected the beauty and elegance of Black girls when no one else did. She wasn’t just drawing history—she was making it.

Honor Jackie’s legacy with this exclusive tee celebrating her unstoppable creativity and her timeless impact on art and culture. Because greatness is always in style!
