Messin' w Texas 10 Commandments (Arabic & others)

Donation protected
Can you envision the “10 Commandments” sign written in Arabic hanging in school classrooms across Texas?

With the same bravado employed by Larry Flynt, Team Chaz will boldly defy convention and challenge accepted Lonestar State limits of religious expression and freedom of speech.

As religious freedom and expression are hotly debated in Texas, state lawmakers are proposing a new, likely-to-be-constitutionally-challenged law mandating the display of the 10 Commandments in classrooms across the state. Cue artist and activist Chaz Stevens, who is once again testing the status quo through another massive donation of his custom-made posters.

This Year, We Seek to Send 2,500 Posters

This time, his signs are heading back to Texas -- where last year, 1,100 similar signs were carefully crafted in various languages, such as:

  • Arabic
  • English Gay God 1 - English Gay God 4
  • Hebrew and Hebrew Pride
  • Hindi
  • Klingon
  • Punjabi
  • QR and UPC
  • Spanish and Spanish Pride
  • Star Trek Pride
  • Star Wars
  • Vulcan


In the end, it's about inclusion for all (believers and non-believers). With Christianity dominating the Texas landscape, it's these sorts of legislative moves that are designed to force minorities to the backbench.

Regardless of your belief (or disbelief), please rise alongside us in stern opposition to this legislation.

Another Year, Same Stupidity

What we learned in Texas -- and we're applying that knowledge to this year's project -- is the first display across the finish line wins! So, we've moved quickly to get a big initial batch of 16x20 posters out the door and beat the evangelicals to the school wall.

Once this GoFundMe is underway, we'll ship double-sided high-gloss metal prints.

  • 16x20 high-gloss metal print
  • Float mount hanger
  • 1/8" rounded corner
  • Dye is infused directly into specially coated aluminum sheets
  • Ultra-hard scratch-resistant surface
  • Waterproof/weatherproof
  • Can be cleaned

Your Financial Support Is Needed and Very Appreciated

To financially empower his endeavors, Chaz's team seeks individual sponsors to help defray significant costs, including:

  • Producing artwork that fully complies in letter and spirit with the anticipated passage of state law
  • Printing and delivery of materials inhouse
  • Shipping prints directly to elementary, middle, and high schools
  • Legal
  • IT
  • Compensation
  • Marketing and PR
  • Advertising

To ensure our civil liberties are fully protected, we’re delighted to enlist the expertise of in-house attorney Thomas Wright. Battling against strong winds surely to come our way from likely governmental opposition arguing against our signs, securing additional legal help will likely be essential for a successful campaign.

Proceeds to Support AIDS Research

A portion of our proceeds will be donated towards AIDS research as well as LGBTQ+ awareness - elevating both artistry and philanthropic causes in tandem!

Protecting Democracy Thru Art

As CEO of ESADoggy and an internationally recognized political activist, Chaz Stevens is known far and wide for his spirited entrepreneurship and provocative projects. For decades, Chaz and his team have been producing art and events that highlight the importance of separating church and state, and the need for full and equal civil rights for all - regardless of who you are, who you love, or how you dress.

Chaz & Co. also took the states of Florida and Texas by surprise last year, with their extraordinarily effective and very unique brand of activism.

A Message from Chaz Stevens


My team's efforts and those of my company can be a powerful lever of change, driving progressive social justice by advancing the strategies and tools that deal with issues such as protecting democracy, LGBTQ+ matters, and racial inequality. Nonviolent methods of conflict resolution have been shown time and again as the most efficient way to achieve peace and justice. Like Ben & Jerry's, I mix corporate duty with social responsibility.

Without ESADoggy, none of my work would be possible. Doggos and kitties rescue us all in more ways than I can count.

My thanks for your support, together we can protect Democracy.
