The man they left out of the textbook.
In 1791, a free Black man taught himself the mathematics of the stars by candlelight — predicted a solar eclipse the experts got wrong, built one of America's first striking clocks by hand, and mailed his almanac to Thomas Jefferson, daring the author of "all men are created equal" to mean it.
The front carries his face in gold-lit detail. The back, his own celestial calculations. The sleeve, our crest.
Wear the story. Honor the legacy.
Verified history — almanac published 1791. Garment-dyed heavyweight cotton. Front, back, and sleeve print.
