Didja catch that recent ‘Gram with Tom Morello and his mom advocating for Black Lives Matter? It’s an all-around winner. It’s got a great message, it’s adorable, and, oh yeah, Tom Morello is wearing an awesome Master of Reality -style Black Lives Matter shirt, too:

My 96 yr old mom has been a tireless advocate for Black Lives her whole life. From being a foreign student advisor at the Univ. of Illinois, to teaching in Kenya and supporting the anti-colonial movement there, to teaching African Studies and bringing a radical perspective to a white conservative high school for 30 yrs, to being a member of the Illinois Urban League and campaigning for civil rights, to helping homeless African American men get their GED at the Salvation Army, to telling anybody who came at our family with any racist garbage to go straight to hell, to arming me with pride & confidence, to being a lifelong proponent of racial justice and ruthless critic of racist police. Proud to stand with her today, as always, in solidarity in the fight for a more just and humane country & planet. (Photo by Rhoads Morello)

In fact, the photo and the shirt design got the thumbs up from Geezer Butler…
…who must have really dug the design! ‘Cause Sabbath are gonna start selling those shirts, for $25 a pop, with 100% of the net proceeds going to benefit the Black Lives Matter global network foundation . I assume that was Geezer Butler’s idea, too. I mean, we know we can’t trust Ozzy to give money to charity .
You can pre-order a shirt here . They’re expected to start shipping July 14ish.
