Welcome to Karen Hunter is awesome.

And in this space, we have conversations that very few people have.

I love nuance, but more than nuance.

I really like to think deeply about the conditions that we find ourselves in every day.

And this is what this space is all about. So come on in. Leave your judgment and your closed

mindedness at the door. Open your heart. Open your mind and come on in and challenge yourself

to think more broadly. Hope you enjoy. We were just going down memory lane. I was talking with our next guest in Amber Cabral

about, you know, not just doing the sewing that my grandmother taught me how to crochet, and

I did a rug, you know, with the hook. And I said when we weren't doing that, we were outside,

it was hopscotch, jacks, hot peas and butter, double dutch, kickball, because we shut down the street.

Wasn't a whole lot of cars coming through my neighborhood.

Kickball was home base was in front of my door, so it was beautiful.

And when it was raining, we would play Uno and Clue and Monopoly.

And those memories were just something that made childhood everything. The water holes on the

outside of the fire hydrant. If you lived in certain neighborhoods, you could open that thing up when it got

too hot and we had to come in when the street light came on. And we were riding bikes and falling down

and getting dirty and fighting and it was beautiful. I don't know what these children are doing now,

but you can introduce them to some things.

So we're going to talk about stitching some things.

And I'm looking at her background.

Boy, all of the spools of thread and the sewing machines

and the beauty of that and the joy that she's coming in with.
