Red short sleeve cotton t-shirt picture and quote on front. Print is of an Indigenous man printed in back, overlay in yellow has these words: "..... did you know that trees talk? Well they do. They talk to each other, and they'll talk to you if you listen. Trouble is, white people don't listen. They never learned to listen to the Indians so I don't suppose they'll listen to other voices in nature. But I have learned a lot from trees: sometimes about the weather, sometimes about animals, sometimes about the Great Spirit. I have spoken" Tatanga Man "Walking Buffalo".
