Designed for those who believe that intellectual freedom is worth celebrating—and protecting—this piece reclaims Valentine’s Day as a moment for values-driven connection rather than clichés.

Bold, playful lettering delivers a message that’s equal parts romantic and defiant, making it ideal for book lovers, educators, librarians, and anyone who stands against censorship. It’s a natural conversation starter, whether worn to a bookstore, classroom, rally, or casual outing.
