Rootwork: Re-membering for Black Liberation

“We have a felt sense that something’s wrong. Being able to feel it and work through that to get us back to the place of re-imagining: the dream space, connecting with our internal sense of hope and possibility that I feel can only come from the information our body gives us.”

Rootwork: Reimagining the Future Starts in the Body

“Taking just a few minutes to land in our bodies changes the quality of how we are together. It creates a different foundation for connection, conversation, and collective imagination, and my hope is that we can all build on those skills and apply them to our daily practices.”

Inside Movement Medicine: Meet Macole

“I’m learning how it also starts from the self and how it is at the cellular level in which we create ripples and changes at a more macro scale. Innerstanding that being in the body, as a site of transformation, simultaneous effects broader structures. So much of the time we are understanding oppression by intellectualising it.”

Building Collective Power & Preparing to Govern

Exploring the internal and external work. We offer this space for all of us – organisers, liberation workers, community leaders, healers, and abolitionists – to learn about the embodied competencies we need to cultivate in order to build and tolerate power, and reckon with what it costs us when, instead, we default to shame or making ourselves smaller.

Illustration of a pink lotus flower in bloom and two closed buds, and their green leaves. Handwritten poem in small squares at the top reads: We are with you, {We, who honour your life} We breathe with you as you move through strife. We are with you, {We, who witness your distress} We offer comfort with arms outstretched. We are with you, {We, who speak to the Earth} We seek grounding in the nature she births. We are with you, {We, who hear your cries} We believe you and stand by your side. We are with you, {We, your ancestors above} We are with you always, forever in love.

There is a lantern lit community altar which is home to a bowl of water, a machete, white flowers, coffee, red envelopes, and offerings of ground provision.
