Tremain Emory' Denim Tears contitues to reimagine the radicalized iconography of Americana in its latest collection, "A Proper Burial, Thanks America." Similar to his "Hissing of Summer" drop last month, the new collection will feature an immersive art installation and retail event.

The two-day event will launch a limited collection of wearable including the new "Tyson Becford on a plantation" tee as well as a "Black Jesus" shirt. "America was built off cotton, slaves & religion so I made America a ‘mascot’," says the brand on Instagram.
