We Go Down Sewing: A Conversation with the Auntie Sewing Squad

April 26, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 3:15 pm

We hope you can join us for a virtual panel conversation with Kristina Wong and members of the Auntie Sewing Squad, about the mutual aid organization and the new book, The Auntie Sewing Squad Guide to Mask Making, Radical Care, and Racial Justice, on Tuesday, April 26, 2pm to 3:15pm.

We Go Down Sewing: A Conversation with the Auntie Sewing Squad

Come hear from members of the Auntie Sewing Squad, which began as a small collective of friends making masks for essential workers at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in the wake of government failures. It grew into a mutual aid network of 800 “Aunties” sewing masks for BIPOC communities across the U.S.. Their work is chronicled in their new book, The Auntie Sewing Squad Guide to Mask Making, Radical Care, and Racial Justice (University of California Press, 2021).
