NY Times bestselling author and acclaimed artist @mollycrabapple recently sat down with the feminist, socialist magazine Lux (@readlux ) for a beautiful interview about bringing back to life the people of the Bund and what lessons their resistance holds for us today. Puffin is proud to support the work of both Molly and Lux and we highly recommend this 10 minute read. ๐Ÿ”— in bio! #Lux #LuxMag #LuxMagazine #puffin #PuffinFoundation
