Earlier today, our “The Heart is a Frontline” team Earlier today, our “The Heart is a Frontline” team was joined by over 30 courageous grief tenders in our grief + action space. We worked with the experience of fear that so many of us are feeling as times intensify. Together, we slowed down, wrote with our fear and grief, and then took a practical step toward community care and resistance preparation. Thank you to everyone who joined us. We left feeling more rooted, resourced, and ready to meet this moment. We’ll be hosting a few more of these in the weeks to come. This gathering was also a prelude to our 9-month politicized grief ritual training. You know where to find more info. With courage and care, Tajah, Naila, Jessi, and Holly
I know some of you are not going to like this but I know some of you are not going to like this but it’s true and also kinda silly that we have to keep saying this. Relational welcome is movement infrastructure. We’re deeply unfun and unalluring too much of the time, and it is costing us. Of course, apply ample nuance and care around identity. It’s absolutely f*ck*d that some people get to choose to be at more risk while others have been forced into vulnerability and harmed for generations. That reality matters. It shapes capacity and what people can/want to offer. And still, this is not going to work if we treat people who WANT to join us, people we need, like they are inconveniences or problems to be corrected. Also, it’s not good when this quadruple Capricorn is reminding us to be relational. XO, H 🌈🫏🧙🏻‍♀️
I first posted these slides last May, here they ar I first posted these slides last May, here they are again with a fresh look and some minor edits. I’ve gotten a good amount of new followers the past few months, so I’ll be bringing back past slide sets that still feel pertinent and potent for this moment. Here’s pieces of the previous caption as well... Our safety does not come from the state, it comes from each other. We must talk about, and practice, de-arrest tactics in our communities. De-arrest is one way we say: Not today, you f*sc*st f**ck*rs! It’s a way of protecting each other against the violence of Empire. What we do to build trust and belonging matters. What we actually do to protect each other matters. We are not helpless. We are the safety net. We are the sacred disruption. DISCLAIMER This post is for educational and informational purposes only. It does not encourage or incite illegal activity. Please use your own discretion, assess risk, and know your rights. Move in solidarity, not in isolation. Also, I am not interested in picking out all the things that I (or anyone else) didn’t include or articulate perfectly. I am interested in tips, experience, and coalition building. I am interested in fundamental pieces I’m missing, particularly around safety and actually enacting these tactics. XO, H 🌈🫏🧙🏻‍♀️
Highly suggest following at @ykreborn — these slid Highly suggest following at @ykreborn — these slides are quotes from YK’s latest post. If you’ve been organizing, thank you. If you’re just now joining the movement, welcome. As YK says, “fight back and resist…” XO, H 🌈🫏🧙🏻‍♀️
This heartbreak is stitching us stronger, wiser, d This heartbreak is stitching us stronger, wiser, deeper, together. We need each other, and we need our grief to activate us toward protecting who and what is most vulnerable. In each “Grief in Action” gathering, we’ll focus on a thread of emotional experience that asks to be honored and engaged as a response to these times. This Friday, January 16th, we’ll be “Working with Fear in Politicized Grief Tending.” We’ll welcome the wisdom of grief and fear through a vigil and action-oriented practice. In our hour together, we’ll slow down and offer a brief micro-learning to resource and steady our nervous systems. Then we’ll engage with a grief tending practice. We’ll close by participating in a small, grounded action, activating our grief and fear into practices that move us toward community safety and collective liberation. This is a praxis space, a place to practice with real emotion, in real time, together. Bring your tenderness, your broken-heartedness, your conviction, and your open, willing hands. INFORMATION Date: Friday, January 16th Time: 1-hour, 10am PST / 11am MST / 1pm EST Materials to Bring: writing materials, supportive grief/Ancestral objects Co-Facilitators: Tajah Schall, Naila Francis, Jessi Rado, and Holly Truhlar
