Resist Anti Alligator Alcatraz Protest Shirt — A Stand for Rights & Nature
In June 2025, Florida authorities unveiled Alligator Alcatraz—an immigration detention center constructed on the Dade‑Collier airfield in Big Cypress, deep within the Everglades, designed to hold up to 5,000 migrants in tents and trailers surrounded by razor wire and wetlands teeming with alligators and pythons. The shirt’s bold phrase “Alligators Against Fascism” reclaims this space, positioning nature itself in silent protest against unjust human systems.

artwork shows two stylized alligators, reminiscent of the real swamp-dwelling creatures that inspired the facility’s nickname. One holds a placard stating “Say No to Alligator Auschwitz,” drawing a stark parallel to historical concentration camps while reminding us of the shocking comparisons this site has drawn . The alligators wear protester-like hats—symbols of resistance and silent solidarity with the voiceless.
Around the central image, the phrase “Resist Alligator Alcatraz” echoes the protests that lined Route 41 near the Everglades, where environmentalists, tribal leaders, and human-rights advocates voiced fierce opposition. By wearing the shirt, you align with voices who challenge exploitation of both people and ecosystems.
Finally, beneath the illustration, “Everglades, Florida” grounds the message in place—the same land where Native American communities warned construction desecrated sacred sites, and where fragile ecosystems come under threat. This shirt isn’t just a garment—it’s a wearable manifesto connecting real events with a movement for justice and environmental stewardship.
