Radicle Threads is a BBIMP grassroots company that aims to create a sustainable, ethical, and equitable online and print publication with a focus on crafting.
Our mission is to uplift, amplify, and empower BBIMP voices and to share our knowledge, skills, and experiences with the goal of increasing accessibility for all.
*Please note* BBIMP, Black, Brown, Indigenous, Melanated People is created by Louiza “Weeze” Doran @accordingtoweeze.
We understand and realize that we are not a monolith and our views, thoughts, and opinions are representative of us, our contributors, and not all BBIMP.
Who We Are
My hope is to give a glimpse into the cultures, crafts, foods, and narratives of BBIMP who have always been here. I’m inspired by humans and life on our planet. I’m determined to change the way BBIMP, stories are told by re-learning and sharing truths from those whose lived experiences shaped their lives and mine.

I grew up in Haïti, a place that has shaped my views of the world and life in too many ways to count. Radicle Threads Magazine for me is a platform where we all can learn about the many cultures, arts, experiences, and lives of Black Brown Indigenous and Melanated People in our community.

I am inspired by all aspects of fibre crafting, I enjoy seeing the connections between people, nature, subsistence, and creation. It always amazes me to see how different people can take similar fundamental knowledge and resources and create so many different useful and beautiful things.
