In her first-ever tutorial book on craftivism, master craftivism Sayraphim shows you how to make and use various crafts for political and social protest purposes including: "Through her craftivism, Sayraphim teaches us how to tell our stories, create our dreams, and uncover hidden talents. Her work has inspired me to thread the eyes of needles, share stories with strangers I'll never meet, and learn about the wonders of ground-dwelling parrots in New Zealand."<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Guerrilla Kindness is full of ways to show your support for a cause through homemade items. One of my favorites to see were the protest dolls, which can be done for any cause and can even be based on real people. There are also explanations for how to make banners, flags, and even bake goods that can be used to spread your message. There are also some elements of general craft teaching included. Lothian shares how to patch items that you've made so that they can continue to last even longer. These patching plans also allow you to add even more details to your work. While this is a crafting book, what I found tremendously important to point out what Lothian's decision to include a section on symbols and organizations in the introduction of the book. She wants to ensure that those who are crafting have a clear idea of that they are doing and are not alienating people or co-opting something that is not connected to who they are. Guerrilla Kindness and Other Acts of Creative Resistance is a great book for anyone who wants to grow their skills as a maker and is also interested in helping make the world around them a better place." -Nerdy Girl Express<br>
