Having Black Liberation in mind may not change the design of your square. However, it hopefully will change the conversations that you have while working on your squares. Let people know that your knitting, crocheting, or weaving is part of anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-oppressive action. Let people know that you care about and are working for Black Liberation. Engage and feel connected to this larger community working towards Black Liberation.
