Here are a few reliable sources about Black femicide and violence. I use these works in my Black Feminism course:

- INTIMATE JUSTICE, Shatema Threadcraft

- AMERICA, GODDAM, Treva Lindsey

- ARRESTED JUSTICE, Beth Richie

I have this plan to eventually teach 19C and crochet/knitting/threadcraft together, so I'm picturing a Jane Austen style salon with this.

Our first stretch goal is the Stitch Witch, a Witch subclass using threadcraft to manipulate raw magic. Weaving, embroidery, knitting - put the craft in witchcraft.

With MtG artist @juliametzgerart.bsky.social coming on board to illustrate the subclass, let's make it happen!

There's a lot of talk online about Black femicide that reads as half-baked and reactionary. These sources may add necessary context.

- "Of Fast-Tailed Girls and Freedom," Mikki Kendall

We do threadcraft and poetry. We write about our disabilities and from that perspective.

Including a sample in the threads: a poem entitled "I'd Rather be your Favorite Toy."

My friend Shatema Threadcraft just made this book The Labors of Resurrection and it is so brilliant and beautifully written! Read it! academic.oup.com/book/60873

We< enjoy pleasant romps with our friends and quiet evenings with threadcraft projects just as much as we enjoy bringing science classes, KYR pamphlets, and care packages to our community partners.

Silly hobbies support your mind!
I'm re-reading Animorphs. yes, this is fiction for 13-year-olds from the 90s. yes, this is cringe millennial-nostalgia bullshit to be reading instead of Dostoevsky and Pynchon or whatever. I don't care. it's cool, it's therian, it's creative, the author supports trans rights, it's good for me

Hi, we go by Hope. We do threadcraft and poetry (at a much of a pace as our brain and paws allow).

AI hasn't caught up to doing threadcraft but please remember to support fiber arts! Legacy crafts have been eroded by industry but are still very important as non-renewable resources dwindle!

I picked it up after watching Annie present her book at the Western Political Science Association, together with a line up of brilliant commentators, including Lisa Beard, Jasmine Syedullah, Shatema Threadcraft, Monica McLemore @mclemoremr.bsky.social, and George Shulman @george1951.bsky.social

CPT is offering this collection of essays I curated with the wonderful Rachel Brown on the Politics of Care free & open access for the next few months.Easiest group project I’ve ever done & I think it turned out pretty well. Have a look, perhaps it will be of use.

Don't know what to cast on or catch up on next though.

The more things change, the more they stay the same... In other news, I'm 98% done with my latest tapestry - just gotta fix a wonky tassel, then hang it up beside the Original, a school project from ten-ish years ago

Taking some time this evening to get some weaving done. My goal was to make a whole bunch of bands before next years pride and hand them out to folks who wanted. But next month I'll be working on a personal project instead -- leash for the service dog I'll be getting soon.

I need to know some theory because I want to teach a class called Knotty Plots that talks about threadcraft in novels. Definitely A Tale of Two Cities!
