My essay concerns how antiblackness and misogyny intersect in higher education, the cumulative impact on Black women, and institutional implications. My hope is that it can serve as a catalyst for discussion and action.

My mom was a sewer and taught me to make things I couldn’t find as a tall girl (Lane Bryant was the only game in town). Later, I worked as a seamstress in grad school and then was into crafts. I loved spending hours in Joann.
Fabric chain Joann is going out of business and closing all 800 stores, marking the end of an 82-year-old company that was once the leading destination for DIY and crafts enthusiasts.
Joann will close all stores, shutter business pending court approval
The news comes a month after the fabric and crafts chain filed for its second bankruptcy within a year.

This makes me so sad. Hopefully she & her mother will be cutting up and offering us a gentle push from wherever they are now. I was thinking about how much I’d love to hear from Ann Richards & Molly Ivins these days. Anyway, thank you, Cecile. You were a real one.
