If we build it, will you come?

What started as a snarky response to a fabric manufacturer's tone deaf social media post is blossoming into something that could become a really amazing community of inclusive, anti-bigoted makers.

We know we can't do this alone, so if you are interested in helping grow this crazy ass idea, please fill out the Anti-racist Quilt Guild's Planning Group Interest Form linked under @sasquatch.stitches profile.

We are seeking volunteers that have skills in community/organization building, social media, technology structures, and legal/business structures to form a small planning group. Tolerance for the word "fuck" is an attribute.

Not knowing what kind of response we'll receive, you may not hear back from us right away. There were some folks that volunteered to help in the comments under Petra's original post - for visibility we'll try to tag them in the comments here - hopefully we won't miss anyone.

A public IG profile, with demonstrated anti-racist views is required. Invitation is open worldwide and meetings will be virtual.

Radicalized quilty friends are the best 🔥
