Juneteenth is a monumental moment in our nation's history
and commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans.
Following the issuing of the Emancipation Proclamation on January
1st, 1863, not all enslaved people immediately found
freedom. Juneteenth marks the day when enslaved people in
Galveston, Texas received news that they were free. On the one
year anniversary, freed people in Texas organized the first
celebration of "Jubilee Day" (which became a federal holiday on
June 17th, 2021).
While Juneteenth is a symbol of liberation for Black Americans,
it is also a reminder of the legacy and continued efforts to
uphold white supremacy and oppress Black people through police
brutality, abject poverty, voter disenfranchisement, lack of
access to housing and healthcare and more.
But none of us are well in a system that cares for some at the
expense of others. Juneteenth is a reminder that "no one is free
until everyone is free" and it is a day to recommit to the fight
for Black liberation. Here are some ways to show up:

In collaboration with Black Women's Blueprint and Restore
Forward I'm hosting a workshop this week for white bodied leaders
called Detoxing From Whiteness.
( [link removed] )
!!!STARTS TODAY!!!
The call for white people to “do the work” is a serious one. Not
just because of the historical and present, pervasive and
persistent, embodied and systemic impact of white supremacy on
Black and Brown people, but because it threatens our democracy,
our planet and our humanity as a whole. White supremacy is bad
for all of us.
This intensive is designed for well-meaning white people who are
ready to reckon with how we’re implicated in the system of white
supremacy and what it's going to take to detox our body/mind and
heal our humanity.
📣 WHAT: Detoxing From Whiteness (for white bodied leaders)
📅 WHEN: Jun 19, 12:00 PM EDT – Jun 22, 2:00 PM EDT
📍WHERE: Virtual Event (join from your home)
🏷️ PRICE: Sliding Scale (dm for additional financial support)

Note: While this training is led by a white bodied
facilitator AND for white bodied leaders and practitioners, it is
held in accountable relationship with Black Women's
Blueprint/Restore Forward. ( [link removed] ) Also, a
portion (25%) of the program fee will be redirected to support
scholarship funding for BIPOC.
