I didn't even go to a HBCU and I want to snap up some stuff.

BUT! There is a different convo also being had about class solidarity and Black wealth that this collection is also prompting.

AND! I heard that the process RL engaged in to create this collection was one steeped in a lot of deep research and listening with actual folks from Oak Bluffs, the recorded history, the traditions. It seems very thoughtful.

Farming, food security, and farm labor are just part of the list of issues addressed by UVA programs. The impact is huge for Charlottesville, but also for Virginia and the nation.
