The women that are coming together to weave my seem like a situation that would never come about. The women that sit side by side may have had a family member killed by the family member of another women sitting next to them. In other circumstances being in the same room may be a problem, but here they all see that they are in poverty and weaving is a way to get out of the situation.
Reading this story made me think about the deconstruction of oneself and of a community, and how they are able to pull themselves together in order to better one another. It is a touching story. One which I will think about for awhile.
Here is a link which I found the story.
