Traditional fabric from Gulu, Uganda brought to you by traveler Priscilla Cheng.
"Fabric was found in Gulu, Uganda where over 30 years of civil war ensued at the hands of Joseph Kony and the LRA rebels. The town is incredibly vibrant despite the devastating effects of war that can still be seen. There are many amazing groups in the area doing incredible work to bring about hope and healing to these people in the aftermath of the war, but wars like these are entirely preventable. We also spent some time in Gulu with an organization called Amani Ya Juu which provides training in tailoring and counseling for women who were formerly abducted by the LRA rebels during the war. The beautiful crafts they make which provide a living for their families is just a small testament to the healing they have found in the community and the hope they have for their children's futures." —Priscilla Cheng
