  • When local T-shirt shop Dirty Coast heard that Pope Leo XIV had family ties to New Orleans, they did what they do best and made a clever T-shirt.

Pope Leo XIII, who served from 1878 to 1903, is being honored with a new line of T-shirts by the Catholic clothing company, "Into the Breach." The shirts feature a portrait of the pope along with his quote, "Nothing emboldens the wicked so greatly as the lack of courage on the part of the good." This initiative aims to celebrate Pope Leo XIII's legacy, particularly his encyclical "Rerum Novarum," which addressed the rights and duties of capital and labor, and his efforts in promoting social justice and defending the poor. The T-shirts are designed to inspire wearers to embody the courage and faith exemplified by Pope Leo XIII.
