21MC Pharaoh’s Poncho #1
Listen… Did you hear that? Exactly. It’s sound of silence falling from a cashless and changeless piggy bank getting shook vigorously. The only squeal of excitement comes from my mouth. This entire scenario is takes place in the near future where my dollars get virtually exchanged for goods. A future where 21MC finally releases their poncho joints for the public to have. For me, she, and I… I got to have it. Most recently I made a short mention of the threads in my blogger quiz, but seeing the latest creation above told me 21MC deserved something more. From their webpage:
21MC (21st Century Maroon Colony) is a S.F. based conceptual streetwear company representing the west coast of the Afro-Triangle.
1. Live from Afro-Triangle, our purpose is to provide Tropical Wear garments to the urban Maroon Colonies of the 21st century. The patterns, rhythms, textures, and colors of Africa and Her diaspora, passed on to us by our ancestors, inform the way we create our collections and the way we wear ourselves on the streets. Each collection 21MC creates, tells of our rebellions on the plantations, and our survival in the cities of the beast.
Yeah, folks… there is danger on the horizon.

Okay, easy with the danger on the horizon. Stay away from the stores! I do like the fits displayed. Enjoyed reading the blog, sitting here listening to some smooth jazz as ususal. Those were some nice pics of MLK memorial. Don’t forget I have the other books for your challenge. Love the Mothership…Perhaps we can arrange a weekend meeting when you stay in one area long enough. Ciao
