Image of user holding a mug with Benjamin Lay saying "smash this mug." The phrase references him smashing tea cups that were made by slave labor.
We love our mug @theequaker.bsky.social #BenjaminLay

The more I've learned about this outspoken, nonviolent radical, the more he's inspired me. Please tell your children, nieces or nephews about him.

A 1750 portrait of Lay by William Williams, with a thick, gray beard, wide-brimmed hat, and long coat. By Template:William Williams - https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/12/opinion/sunday/youll-never-be-as-radical-as-this-18th-century-quaker-dwarf.html?_r=0, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=61656157
During 2012 Occupy Movement, the Occupy encampment in Jenkintown, PA, where Lay was buried, activists renamed the town square as “Benjamin Lay Plaza.”
