Craftivism. This is a daily community of makers creating a quiet space online in resistance to the horrible policies of the current US administration both domestically and abroad.
If you are in the US contact your senator and tell them no more funding to DHS without changes to ICE and Border Patrol tactics.
Making is how many of us cope with stress, anxiety, heartbreak. I hope to be here once a day quietly spinning in solidarity for Minneapolis and all of those suffering at the hands of our current administration.
please join us in making or just sit in some quiet moments to process.
we are all humans. we are all neighbors.
stay healthy.
stay safe.
be kind to your neighbor.
speak up.
and make so many post things.To ask me a question
