Let’S Hear It For The Homemakers, Margaret Ross Sep 2022

Let’S Hear It For The Homemakers, Margaret Ross

AWE (A Woman’s Experience)

Many people are undervalued in our society. Prejudice has been forced into the light in recent years and people are now actively warring against it. As a society and world, we need equality. We need protection for those who can’t protect themselves. Pushing out prejudice is a must. People should have opportunities to live the life they want, but oftentimes when we “push out prejudice,” we are only replacing it with prejudice towards another group.

Priestesses, Prophets, And Paradox: Ceramic Relationships Between Ancient Israel And A Queer Latter-Day Saint, Maddison Tenney

This discourse is important to me, and it feels deeply meaningful. So, when I started this project, I felt specifically drawn to create something that reflected the legacy of foremothers working in …
