“Justice is what love looks like in public.”
- Dr. Cornel West
This is a list of other beings who have become a part of my heart, be they my nearest and dearest, teachers and healers with whom I have worked and/or studied, or luminaries in their field. I have also included organizations, projects and offerings that have been indispensable to my life and continued learning process.
If you have any orgs, people-powered candidates, teachers, and/or learning opportunities/resources that you dig, please get in touch!
& shout out to my sister, Devyn, for the inspiration to make this page!
Teachers
I highly recommend the ‘embodied social justice program’ rev. angel helps direct
i suggest checking out Dr. Meza’s ‘Unlearning & Healing The White Colonial Mind’ class
needless to say, this is not an exhaustive list, and it will continue to grow and grow and grow! so many teachers have shaped how i perceive and experience, many of whom are no longer here in form, such as bell hooks, alan watts, ram dass, and so many more.
