Yema(r)ya Unisex organic cotton t-shirt

During the African Diaspora, slaves had Christianity forced upon them and were forced to abandon the gods and goddesses of their native lands. To maintain their spiritual identity, the slaves used Christian figures as stand-ins for the deities of their homeland. 

This is Yemaya. She is thought to be the Mother of All. She is the origin of all waters – in particular, The River Ogun. The translation of her name means "Mother of all fish." She is Yemaya (or Yemaja), the Nigerian Goddess of the Ocean. This Yuroba Orisha is said to be very nurturing and able to heal infertility in women. 

Made from 100% organic ring-spun cotton, this unisex t-shirt is a total must-have. It's high-quality, super comfy, and best of all—eco-friendly.
