This enables us to approach the quilt not only as a product but as a collaborative project that aims to enable people to reinvent their communities; as such, we suggest, it has much to teach us about how feminist and antiracist political movements might usefully mobilize mnemonic resources.

In the paper, we argue that because of its form, the Quilt opens space for narrative complexity, community building, and an approach to temporality that foregrounds the chronicity of gender-based violence.

The Monument Quilt was a large-scale, collaborative, textile-based craftivist project based in Baltimore and Mexico City that brought together 3,000 red fabric squares made by survivors of GBV and their allies.
