Black and brown girls and boys need a space where they do not have to encounter misrepresentation of their culture. “Black Girls Sew” offers the tools, knowledge and vocabulary to help young people take back their fashion narrative. In this program, writers and fashion designers Hekima Hapa and Lesley Ware will discuss their new book with Desiree Woodard.
