Philosophy Football have produced a T-shirt design based on Cairo street signs showing the way to Tahrir, a route hundreds of thousands of Egyptians took in 2011 to demand, and defend, democracy.
A year ago probably few of us knew where Tahrir Square was. Twelve months on from the start of protests that have become a global symbol of freedom and resistance Philosophy Football have produced an anniversary T-shirt. The design is based on the Cairo street signs showing the way to Tahrir, a route hundreds of thousands of Egyptians took in 2011 to demand, and defend, democracy.
Available from www.philosophyfootball.com we have 5 to be won in our January competition.
