This is a shorter piece on an under-explored topic: RIP shirts. It briefly explores many sides of the phenomenon: commercial, personal and socio-economic. It includes interviews with people who often go unheard.
Depending on where I am in the Bay Area, people around me either own a few RIP shirts, or they have never seen one. Thanks for bringing this subject to media and exposing part of what it is to live and die in America's violent neighborhoods.
