Tambani empowers women to take charge of their lives. As they say on their site "Tambani is a quilting and embroidering initiative to set a group of disadvantaged rural African women on a path of self-actualization and economic empowerment. The embroidered folk tales, which are sold as applique blocks and used by quilters, knitters and crafters all over the world, is a practical way of preserving the Venda oral tradition."
You can view the textiles as you listen to Alex as she reads an age-old Venda folk tale, "The Rejected Wife." Make the textile full screen by clicking the arrow icon in the bottom right of the player.
