    Celebrate culture, community, and connection this Giving Tuesday, December 3, by supporting the Crowns Tea, Thick Descriptions' Signature Event! ?? Inspired by the groundbreaking book "Crowns: Portraits of Black Women in Church Hats" by Michael Cunningham and Craig Marberry, the Crowns Tea honors the tradition of church hats—a beautiful symbol of cultural richness, resilience, and pride. Held at local libraries across Oklahoma, this event brings community members together for a delightful tea, sharing stories, exploring diverse cultural traditions, and building relationships that transcend generations. The church hat becomes more than a fashion statement—it’s a tool to connect, engage, and elevate our collective voices. This Giving Tuesday, your support helps us continue this important work of amplifying stories and creating spaces where everyone belongs. You can donate here: https://lnkd.in/eddhHtQW
