We’ll be using the forum as a space to share our creations, ideas, and reflections to support asynchronous connections, inspire each other, and grow a resource for the larger PLIX community.

There’s been some very inspiring creations. Thank you @eva.skirlo for the impromptu origami cat. And @Kayla for the lovely picture of your cat’s contribution to our Paper Circuits activity!
Here’s our shared zoom doodle of Social "Move"ments!
Thank you all for sharing your (local) social justice issues. Some of them were especially for me to learn about, but I’m grateful that you are where you are, supporting the very real needs of those around you. So thank you for the work you do as librarians!
Sorry for the late reply --I kept forgetting to grab my photo from my phone. This is the pin I made for the Lahaina fires aftermath. #MauiStrong was a trending hashtag to support the wildfire survivors on island. I put the LED in the approximate location of Lahaina on my Maui island cutout (it looks way bigger in the photo). Not quite sure how I’d want to put the pin back on because the cell battery takes up all the room on the back … maybe I’ll have to make another larger version. I have relatives that live on Maui (including distant ones who lived in Lahaina), so it hit close to home to hear about this tragedy.
Jennifer! The way you use your artistry to highlight your passions and issues on your mind and heart is incredible. I’m inspired by how you take a prompt and weave in those elements of yourself.
I hope your relatives in Maui have the support they need. Thank you for sharing this with us.
