    Carpets are central to Iranian culture, history & economy. ~80% are exported, w/nearly 1/2 going to the USA. But under the sanctions this number is required to go down to 0, which is devastating to the Iranian carpet industry, the craft, & everyone whose lives are attached to it.

    Back in Iran for 2 weeks & the devastating weight of sanctions are everywhere. Even the carpet museum was a silent reminder of the 2 million Iranians involved in the carpet industry & whose work is affected by sanctions. (I've been sharing more on insta: )

    Thank YOU! I've been thinking about the consumerism, exploitation and war and our place and role in it- and that talk was EXACTLY what I needed. It was the push I needed to catch up with the becauseweveread syllabus. Keep doing the good work 🌺👍🏽

    One of the things that talked about that really stuck with me was how we need to start thinking about the clothes we wear, right next to our skin, and if our guiding values and principles align with them being a product of violence.

    😭❤️ Thank you so much for coming, and I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!!

    Attending the talk yesterday was one of the best things I've done. It was everything I hoped it'd be and more. It was passionate young people propagating change and talking about how to carve your own way in a capitalist world that shapes us to be ultimate consumers
