‘A breath away from freedom’: Healing the wound of white supremacy, and moving in formation
February 24 | Online

In this special event hosted by AORTA, Autumn Brown will guide participants through a Black Feminist approach to healing the wound of disconnection inherent in white supremacy and racial capitalism. This participatory keynote will map the practices that will build a vibrant, multiracial movement, and remedy the fault lines that we are so often re-inscribing within our movements from the very culture of dominance and control we want to dismantle.
