In the wake of a divisive presidential election, Americans around the country have started fastening safety pins to their clothes. Why? It’s a movement that took off on social media and actually began in the United Kingdom after Brexit, when the U.K. voted to leave the European Union. Throughout England, Northern Ireland, Wales, and Scotland, people wore safety pins to show their alliance to those who felt threatened by Brexit, and here in the U.S., the trend has picked up in a similar response to President-elect Donald Trump’s views on immigration—from deportation to building that wall.

It’s also a quiet, personal way to support your fellow Americans, especially if you’re tired of cruel Facebook posts or scrolling through upsetting memes on Instagram. You can easily fasten any safety pin to your favorite T-shirt or jacket, but there are also dozens of ready-made, sequin-embellished pieces on the market right now, from punk-ish jewelry to pinned-together dresses. Shop them all in the slideshow above, then put your money where your mouth is and take real action against the forces of hate.
