Juneteenth : Rage , Joy, Rest, Release
Black LGBTQIA+ Healing
Healing Happens When We …
Give ourselves permission to gather, play & feel. Feel *every* emotion. Know rage is just as necessary as joy. Choose to “feel” instead of only “think” when trauma & oppression request we “ignore your feelings, and only survive.” This healing resistance awareness and the joy of Juneteenth flowed into the creation of Rage Joy, Rest, Release 2020.
Virtually streamed live by 7 Black queer healers, 2 Black queer sign language interpreters & 1 Black queer emotional safety person. In a space lovingly gifted space so this free experience could happen on our National Black Holiday.
