F.L.O.W.

Lisa has been wearing this t-shirt for a decade now:

A photo of a woman wearing a t-shirt that says "Feminist Library on Wheels" and shows a line drawing of a little cart that opens up to be tiny bookshelves.

Over the weekend, the kid asked what it was a picture of, and we both realized that we didn’t know. Was it the silhouette of a real portable library or was it just a fantasy of one, à la Moose’s Book Bus? Lisa had been following Feminist Library on Wheels on Instagram for many years but had never seen a picture of anything that looked like this glorious, bike-core contraption. So we scrolled back and back and back—and found the sacred machine!
