We are Mankind — Wells T-Shirt

H.G. Wells, The Outline of History (1920) “Our true nationality is mankind.” Wells wrote The Outline of History in 1920, in the wreckage of the First World War. He had watched nationalism carry millions of people to their deaths in the name of lines on a map. His response was to zoom out — all the way out. To the species. To the shared story of where human beings came from and what they were capable of when they stopped treating the tribe as the final unit of loyalty. Five words. The biggest possible frame for who we are. Design — “The Frame” Black tee. The full quote is unhurried, one thought per line: “Our true / nationality / is / mankind.” Opening quotation marks anchor the top. Attribution below.  Five words given the space they earned.
