Tammy Faye Bakker stood out as a compassionate voice for the LGBTQ community during a time of widespread hostility from religious figures. In 1985, she interviewed Steve Pieters, a gay minister with AIDS, responding with empathy, tears, and a message of love rather than judgment—an approach that sharply contrasted the era’s rhetoric. Her openness and humanity earned lasting respect within the LGBTQ community, where she came to be seen as an unlikely ally. This design draws inspiration from her 1985 record Don’t Give Up!, which featured the uplifting title track “Don’t Give Up (On The Brink Of A Miracle).”
Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, these shirts are everything you’ve dreamed of and more – it feels soft and lightweight with just the right amount of stretch, making it comfortable and flattering for both men and women.

Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
