The Fit

This Is Black Music Month.

 

On June 7, 1979, President Jimmy Carter stood on the South Lawn of the White House and declared June as Black Music Month. Photojournalist C. Ron St. Clair was there — camera in hand — capturing the moment history was made.

 

That photograph is now on your back.

 

The Making of Black Music Month Tee features C. Ron St. Clair’s iconic White House lawn image on the front and President Carter’s exact words from that declaration on the back. This isn’t just a shirt — it’s a wearable primary source.
