Overview
A Tapestry for Justice and Community
Blanca and Carmela’s project is called A Tapestry for Justice and Community. The dream for this project is to teach other women how to embroider a tapestry that honors immigrant families living in sanctuary as well as the community’s fight for social justice. The women will work together to create the tapestry while sharing their experiences, their luchas (struggles) and how they can become involved in the fight for social justice
