I first heard about the siddi quilts from Margaret Fabrizio. She did more showings and is passionate about these people and their quilting style. The Kawandi quilts was the first history story I ever heard. You need to talk to Margaret and see her work and hear her story She is on youtube.
Some ethnic groups are so extraordinarily inventive and creative!!! Always filled with a New expression..in arts crafts music dance poetry writing science spiritual expression...and on and on for many many centuries..more than they are given credit for! Their experiments and soul filled creations from their inner life is copied and copied world wide for centuries....And Yet they are oppressed and held back and stifled and given a history that is just that an invented story. The Entire World is a more vibrant and upbeat and intensely beautiful place because of their sacrifice. May we All come to love one another and give credit and real praise ..not academic study papers...but joyful and true and respectful celebration and full acknowledgement of Another Way of Doing Things! Peace and Respect to these Ladies and their Jazz!
I was sad to see this white Dr as the voice of AA history at a college, but at least he acknowledges there was a true history of rebellion and pushback against bondage worldwide, at least that was made clear!
