Kemio, an up-and-coming Japanese digital talent based in New York City, has partnered with Private Policy and community-centered streetwear brand UPRISERS to design a T-shirt for charity. Hate Is A Virus, a non-profit dedicated to eliminating racism towards the AAPI community, will receive 100 percent of the proceeds from the sale.

The entire team behind this project, including the photographers, glam team, creative director and brands, are members of the AAPI community. This team-up was formed based on all three parties' common goal, which is to use their platforms to diminish racism towards the AAPI community fueled by COVID-19. The design of the garment itself features a blue rose on the front with the phrase, "RESPECT & LOVE," while the back boasts the same graphic in the center with the brands' logos printed on top.

Priced at $30 USD, Private Policy x UPRISERS x Kemio's tee will be available on July 8 via Private Policy's website.
