The phrase "Neither Master Nor Slave" was once a rallying cry for abolitionists, radical republicans, and individualist thinkers who rejected domination in all its forms—whether from kings, slaveholders, or bureaucrats. This eagle clutching a broken chain is drawn from 19th-century American resistance art, where eagles often appeared on coins, seals, and medals as symbols of personal sovereignty and liberation.
The design echoes abolitionist medallions and Civil War-era tokens that showed broken shackles and free eagles. But this version goes further: the eagle holds the chain in both its beak and claw, making it clear that the chains weren’t handed to it—they were broken by it. The message is simple: no rulers, no servants. Just liberty.
Embroidered in solid black on a soft, low-profile dad hat. No party branding. No slogans. Just a clean emblem of American defiance almost no one else is offering.
