Potter Alice Cheverez, a brown skinned woman with her dark hair pulled back, wearing a tube top and jean shorts, stands behind a round wooden table that has pieces of her unfired pottery and ripening avocados sitting on it. There's a yellow wall and various items in the background. Additional info: Alice learned pottery from her mother, but her mother learned from a Taino cultural preservationist and archaeologist Daniel Silva, from Vieques.

I'm prepping for tomorrow's workshop with UnidosNow, a local Hispanic/Latinx org that has been shaken by the recent wave of deportations and has decided that working with #clay would be a grounding, healing activity to help cope with that reality.
Before the hands-on clay part, I'll share photos of the #Taino potter I met in #PuertoRico when we visited in 2023. #AliceCheverez of Morovis carries on the ancient art of her people, passed on to her by her mother. #alttext #Indigenous #ceramics
