Three individuals standing together outdoors, smiling. They are promoting a project called "Stitching Stories" by residents at the NC Correctional Institution for Women. In the bottom left corner, there is a person speaking about the project, with a quote emphasizing the personal connections revealed through the process of crafting these stories with their fellow residents.

A colorful quilt with squares representing years in incarceration is displayed outdoors. Each square is uniquely colored, and ribbons indicate life experiences like childbirth and loss. An inset shows multiple squares with white ribbons, representing one of the residents lost due to COVID. Accompanying text describes how a local church asked to display the quilt, leading to a permanent solution due to its popularity.

A group of people work together on creating colorful projects at a table. In a smaller inset image, two individuals collaborate on sewing with fabric. Text highlights the efforts of Arise Collective in developing a new version of a quilt using sturdy materials.

An informational poster about an exhibit titled "Stitching Stories: Reimagined." Includes three circular images: a quilt art piece, a presentation with "Stitching Stories: Reimagined" on screen, and an interior view of an exhibit. Text provides details about the exhibit's travel to various venues in NC and the US, highlighting its coverage on YouTube and PBS. A prompt at the bottom invites viewers to learn more.

A person stands in front of a large art installation composed of numerous square panels. The text on the image reads "Learn Their Stories, Experience the Art." Below, there's information about the location: Dorothea Dix Park, 1100 Umstead Drive, Raleigh, NC 27603. Logos for the Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation and PBS North Carolina are also visible.

As COVID-19 further isolated the women incarcerated at the NC Correctional Institution for Women in Raleigh, they came together to crochet a quilt to share their stories with the outside world.

But as the piece gained popularity, they needed a more permanent home for their stories, so they created a new piece that honored the original idea while allowing it to move beyond their local area. Learn more about this special quilt's journey to becoming a permanent art piece. Watch the full story on YouTube (link in bio).

Visibly Speaking is produced in association with the Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation.

Jaidyn Alexis made allegations that she and Blueface bumped uglies after the Walmart trip. Blueface denied these claims but Journey aka Pinkface gave the stream her own version of events. Telling Jaidyn not to let Blueface in the house. What say you …. #blueface #jaidynalexxis #chrisean #thaygirlhenny

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says Ukraine struck a Russian airfield in the Voronezh region overnight, destroying four Su-34 fighter bombers and damaging two more, releasing an aerial photo showing burn scars on an airport ramp. He said the aircraft were loaded with bombs and ready for new attacks on Ukraine. The strike used an R-360 “Long Neptune” missile, and Zelensky thanked the Ukrainian Navy. The Navy named the target as Borisoglebsk airfield and said six Su-34Ms were destroyed, along with aviation support equipment.

Zelensky also said Ukraine hit a drone storage and launch site in the Oryol region and a target in the Black Sea. He said long range operations will continue because Russia is prolonging the war.

The Su-34 is one of the key aircraft Russia uses to launch guided glide bombs at Ukrainian positions and frontline towns.

#Sponsored From Toronto to Niagara to Mississauga - we pretty much said yes to everything. 😂🇨🇦

Toronto streets, Niagara Falls from every possible angle, wine tasting, helicopter rides, little towns, long drives and fall colours everywhere you looked. 🍁

A lot of doing, a lot of seeing, and honestly, a lot of “wow, look at that.”

Canada, you were quite the experience. 🇨🇦✨

Sun rays blasted through the tall Sitka spruce & shore pine in Florence Oregon as we loaded our rafts to kick off day five of the Oregon Coast Trail. We were joined by heaps of seals as we paddled the Siuslaw River toward the south jetty & Oregon Dunes. The beauty of this crossing shot morale through the roof. The Oregon Dunes OHV area is capped by the Siuslaw on the north and the Umpqua on the south, forming an almost whale tail-esque geography, which meant we didn’t see town or road for two river crossings.

For the Umpqua, we got lucky with a hiker/ biker ferry. We restocked food in Winchester Bay & continued south, into the fog, on a long stretch of isolated beach that would spit us out at the mouth of the Coos River & the massive Coo’s Bay. We paddled once again before rolling into Sunset Bay State Park at dusk & made camp in the beautiful yurts, that are housed at the campground there.

The morning featured a carb load at a local cafe & resupply since racoons got into some of our food overnight. Then, we pinned it south to Bandon! With a gusty paddle across the Coquille River, we landed in the sunny, busy town of downtown Bandon, grabbed great coffee & lunch and road south with the wind at our backs through the Lord of the Rings like sea stacks on the Bandon Beach. It was another beautiful moment on par with the sun rays from the morning prior, though a whole lot more moody with the fog rolling back in. 20 miles south through dropping temps and worsening fog, we reached Floras Lake and decided to call it a day. The soft sand was relentless on this stretch & we were starting to feel the wear and tear on our bikes and bodies. With two days to go, we were feeling good about our mileage and looked forward to the morning ride through Cape Blanco instead of doing it in the fog & dark.
