Craft Talkin‪'‬ Jamie Chalmers

Jamie and Merion reconnect with the magnificent craftivist, Sarah P. Corbett, to discuss her new book, The Craftivist Collective Handbook, and revisit the subject of gentle protest, and how it can be an invigorating and hopeful way of creating change. This is a lively chat full of insights and ideas, and the book is full of fantastic projects to try!
