We chat with Elena Kanagy-Loux & Kara Quinteros of the Brooklyn Lace Guild to discuss the return of artisan crafts, the terminology and culture surrounding those crafts, and their place in an industrialized world.

The Poor Prole’s Almanac

The New Guilded Age W/The Brooklyn Lace Guild

Climate Change got you down? Worried about the fact that *everything* seems to be getting worse? Wondering how we got to this point in the first place, and what can we do to build a more resilient future? We take a look at historical pastoral & agricultural societies to see what worked and what didn’t, as well as what resources we have today to make better decisions to build equitable systems. We don’t just discuss ecology and history but also take a leftist perspective on prepping, foraging, homesteading, weapons, community-building, and basically anything that needs discussing during late-stage capitalism.
