Black Child Clothing Introduces Their 300 Signature Collection

CHICAGO PRNewswire -- Black Child Clothing, a clothing company out of Chicago, Ill., is excited to announce the launch of their 300 Signature Collection. This collection was designed
to commemorate the 300 Freedom Suit Cases that were filed in the St. Louis Circuit Court House from 1814 to 1860, a time period when it was illegal for a slave to be found literate. The designs on the 300 Signature Collection display replicas of authentic slave signatures from these 300 Freedom Suit Cases.

Many of these cases were filed by slaves in order to gain back their freedom. One specific case, that of Margaret Morgan vs. John Colter, set the precedent for all future cases involving
slave freedoms in St. Louis, eventually giving light to an issue that was at the forefront of slavery in America during this time period.

Owner and Founder, Matthew Delashment, created Black Child Clothing to continue the story from slavery to freedom, hoping to represent the move to empowerment among the Black community. He named his clothing company “Black Child” after being inspired by the poem “Hey Black Child,” written by Useni Eugene Perkins. Their 300 Signature Collection aims to further Mr. Perkins’ vision into today’s generation, taking pivotal moments within Black culture and creatively ex - pressing them through fashion.

The 300 Signature Collection features t-shirts, hoodies, long-sleeves, and hats in three available colors: dark grey , sand,
and brown. You can purchase these items in sizes from small
to XXXL, and every piece in this collection features a replica of a
real slave signature.
