Meet Bakoroba the artisan who made RTH’s collection of Mudcloth, located in Mali. Bakoroba is an expert in traditional dyeing practices, he is committed to his craft, referring to it as his cultural heritage. Creating the mudcloth allows him to provide for his family and reduces unemployment and poverty in his village. Through his local cooperative, artisans receive fair wages and young people and women receive training and sales and production assistance. By purchasing Bakoroba’s mudcloth, you are helping empower people around the world through fair trade. Check out his fair trade African mudcloth textiles, they will be available on my website this weekend!
