Gacaca is a traditional justice system in Rwanda used to address crimes, particularly those related to the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi. The word "gacaca" means "grass" in Kinyarwanda, symbolizing the idea of justice being administered in open-air community meetings. It prioritizes truth-telling and community healing, aiming to promote reconciliation and restore social cohesion. This design also features a traditional Rwandese-woven basket called "agaseke", which has become a symbol of peace and goodwill amongst families and friends. 

This custom crewneck sweatshirt brings incredible quality and amazing style to the mix. Made with soft, ring-spun cotton fabric with 100% cotton threads, it sits unmatched when it comes to softness (light fabric (6.4 oz/yd² (217 g/m²)). All sweatshirts feature a rolled forward shoulder and are printed with OEKO-TEX-certified low-impact dyes. Lastly, Comfort Colors is a proud member of the US Cotton Trust Protocol, which means sustainable cotton sourcing that's good for the environment.
