“Across geographies marked by displacement, surv

“Across geographies marked by displacement, surveillance, and structural constraint, people resist by refusing to abandon love and care.”

Eeman’s conversations with Dorai, Wenda Shantel and Nehanda (names changed for privacy) show so much tenderness, and tell us how caring friendship and space for social gathering challenge structural precarity and control. This piece is a reminder of what can grow under constraints.

Part of our constellations series co-edited with Fouziya, you can read the full essay on writingwomen.co 🌺

“Kantha doesn’t hide its stitches. The stitch

“Kantha doesn’t hide its stitches. The stitch is visible on both sides of the cloth. These circles don’t resolve the distances between our movements but they make the connections visible: between a solidarity organiser in Berlin, an embroiderer carrying resistance from Iran, an activist reclaiming the street in Kochi, a community recovering textile memory in Kenya.”

Rubina traces a thread across borders in her piece about embroidery as transregional solidarity, collective remembering and loving connection. It also seriously makes us want to run out and join a stiching circle! 🧵

All photos of embroidery and stitching circles held across cities and continents are shared by Rubina. Read the full piece on writingwomen.co as part of the constellations series co-edited with Fouziya 🌺

“That’s the difference between love and hunger

“That’s the difference between love and hunger, she says. Hunger is a story you get stuck in. Love’s the story that takes you somewhere new.”

Join the next reading circle on Sunday June 28th to talk love, hunger and Kai Cheng Thom’s ‘Fierce femmes and Notorious Liars, A Dangerous Trans Girl’s Confabulous Memoir.’ We haven’t read anything like this before, utterly magical and so real. You can find a few different editions, published by @metonymypress in Montreal and @zubaanbooks in Delhi.

Slide to see our online reading list for the year and dm to join 🤍
