Love Together: a healing ritual through racial grief, dance, and dreaming out loud
Welcome friends!
Join us for this beautiful gathering to love together. Let us open to healing and connection by creating a space to embody our grief and rage from the distortion of white supremacy culture. Come make space to move towards hope, liberation, and joy from a truthful place. We will dance and sing and tremble open as we hold each other with care. We will MOVE what needs to move through us so we can be who we need to be for our children, for our humanity, for a way to move forward together in harmony on this sacred earth.
This is a mixed race space. If you are looking for a racial affinity space, we honor that and we encourage you to find a different space. This is for people who want to create racial healing in a mixed race space.
How do we choose to move forward at this time? In ritual, in communion with the beauty of the ocean, the sun, the natural elements, the ancient power of village gathering to open our bodies and brighten our spirits and regenerate our hearts.
It's time to dream out loud together our dreams for a new day and way of being. How can we embody hope and connection as we move towards a future that inspires us?
Our ritual is inspired by Sobonfu's grief rituals of the Dagara tradition, from Burkina Faso.
We encourage you to invite friends, lovers, family, and collaborators. The power of these rituals deepens when we are with those with whom we share our life.
