Hey iām a fashion design student so i have tons and tons of pdfs and docs with basic sewing techniques, pattern how-tos, and resources for fabric and trims. Iāve compiled it all into a shareable folder for anyone who wants to look into sewing and making their own clothing. Iāll be adding to this folder whenever i come across new resources

Hereās the thing to remember about anti-racist book lists:
Read these, yes. But then read books that were not written as treatises on racism. Seek out Black art not only because it can teach you something about race but because Black people are simply doing extraordinary work.
Read Morrison as much for her prose and her mastery of pacing as for her politics. Read Ross Gayās Book of Delights, an ode to little wonders and a reminder to look at the world with gratitude. Read Elizabeth Alexanderās stunning testament to grief and marriage, The Light of the World, and note the innovations in form as she mixes memoir with poetry and recipes, a collage meant to mirror her late husbandās paintings. Read NK Jemisinās The Fifth Season and marvel at the worlds she builds.
Just a small reminder. Black art does not exist solely to educate non-Black people. Always be expanding your horizons.

Relating to that last post, āA Guest for Mr Spiderā might be one of the most depressing eps of the entire series (probably not the most unpopular or original take).
Just Jonās childhood in of itself without any supernatural shenanigans. Orphaned at a young age and raised by a woman that while not cruel was unable to give him the love a child deserves due to her own grief and resentment. While acknowledging that it was wrong, still shrugging off being bullied by an adult twice his age because he was āa deeply annoying child.ā Calling being beaten and robbed by this bully āstandard stuffā.
Not only feeling *guilty* that this bully died, but crediting him with saving his life because an adult bullyās act of cruelty against a literal child blew back in his face. Believing that if *heād* been the one to face the Spider he wouldāve survived, creating a lifelong habit of pushing people away and rushing to take on things by himself, a trait that eventually made it easier to manipulate him into situations that set the stage for the literal end of the world.
