Gathering bindweed to experiment with basket making.

Following the advice of the article below I’ll let it dry out first to shrink and then soak it to make it pliable

I didn’t get as much gathered as I intended because a family member showed up to mow the yard and they usually start about where I was working.

I’m not sure how long this will take to dry. 🤷‍♀️ So I guess now I just wait a little while.

The second article has some serious goals. I would love to have some of those little baskets for offerings for Děduška.

The third article mentions all sorts of other vines many of which I have or have access too. This is seriously exciting!

“The state came to massacre, it wasn’t a [police] operation. They came directly to kill, to take lives,” one woman in Penha Complex told the AFP news agency.

“There are people who have been executed, many of them shot in the back of the head, shot in the back. This cannot be considered public safety,” said 36-year-old resident and activist Raul Santiago.

Brazil’s Justice Minister Ricardo Lewandowski said President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is “horrified” by the scale of fatalities and surprised that such an operation went ahead without prior knowledge of the federal government.

Adding my own previous tags:

I’d sincerely appreciate it if non-Brazilians reblogged this. Media outlets all over the world (and especially in my homeland) will try to sweep this under the rug but the horror has spread nationwide. We call it chacina for a reason.

It would be of great help if other countries and their citizens held Brazilian politicians/figures of authority accountable. Or, at least, acknowledge very publicly that there’s an ongoing effort by the Brazilian police force to exterminate black and brown people, especially in Rio.
