Throughout the rest of the year, CLASP is hosting a series of virtual conversations on healing-centered liberation policy. Healing-centered liberation policy advances a radical, imaginative approach to reparations that isn’t static and transactional, considering a host of systematic policies that have economically persecuted and disenfranchised Black Americans, from the transatlantic slave trade to mass incarceration. Healing-centered liberation policy requires us to follow the lead of activists in communities who’ve been doing the work of organizing and building community-led infrastructure to dismantle the police state and create thriving Black and Brown communities.
Upcoming Events
Join us on September 16th at 4:00 pm ET for a conversation on healing justice with Cara Page. Healing justice is deeply rooted in Black feminist traditions and shaped by Southern Black radical traditions. Cara will speak with CLASP’s Isha Weerasinghe about the importance of centering healing in social movements, how to holistically respond to generational trauma and oppression, and the connection between healing and liberation.
