NOW they come out with this!
I remember searching in vain for some 40 Acres and a Mule Filmworks gear at AU (Atlanta University) Complex after School Daze was shot there in the late 80s. (Remember when everyone who went to an HBCU back then SWORE they were in School Daze or knew someone in School Daze? They'd just been "cut out of the scene"?)
Unless you were lucky enough to have attended an HBCU at that time OR live in NYC where the flagship store, Spike's Place was, you were sunk. Now Designer Mark Ecko recreates Lee's director's jacket , the "Sal's Pizzaria" hoodie he wore as Mookie in Do the Right Thing, the "Wake Up!" T-shirt, and others, in honor of the 20th Anniversary of Lee's 40 Acres and a Mule Filmworks.

I wrote my M.A. thesis on Do the Right Thing. "Doctor, always do the right thing." I will be getting a Mookie hoodie.
I knew I liked you! Thanks Brian.
Where can you buy these 20th Anniversary pieces? I actually live in Harlem, not so far from BK.
MTR: I found them at www.turntablelab.com. Look in their gear or clothing section. Thanks for posting.
