On Tending Grief A Conversation With Barton and Johnson (Online)

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Majority cultural norms in the United States suppress our ability to truly feel our grief-deeply, safely, and on our own terms. But each person's experience with grief is as unique as the grief itself. Writer, somatic practitioner, and artist Camille Sapara Barton's take on grief speaks directly to the ways that BIPOC and queer readers disproportionately experience unique constellations of loss.

In their work, Camille honors every experience: The loss of displacement from homelands, severed lineages and ancestral ways of knowing. The grief of colonization and theft. The deep heaviness that burrows into our bodies when society tells us our bodies are wrong. Drawing upon their new book Tending Grief, written specifically to center and hold the grief of BIPOC communities, Camille shares how to reconnect to what's been lost, to find community in grief, and to tend to our own suffering for our individual and collective well-being. Camille shows how we can tend to our grief both alone and in community through sharing circles, nature-based rituals, dancing your grief, and offers tools for peer support and integration.

Join Camille for a unique and gentle conversation with author, spiritual teacher, social justice activist, intuitive healer, and Dismantling Racism educator Michelle Cassandra Johnson exploring how BIPOC communities-and all of us-can tend to our grief. Camille and Michelle invite you to feel your grief, honor what comes up, and move forward in healing.

Sliding scale $0 to $25.
