What is healing justice?
Healing justice is about recognizing the ways that violence and trauma impact our bodies and our communities, and that it takes intentional healing, unlearning and relearning to be able to navigate our institutionally oppressive world in a way that could allow us to step into our power. What does this look like? Trauma-informed, community-building discussions and activities on topics relevant to our communities.
Who is it for?
This collective is for women and gender-expansive people. We aim to center the experiences and leadership of Black, Indigenous, and people of color in our spaces, as well as folks of other marginalized identities. Those impacted by the intersection of various systems of oppression are the north star of our movement.
When?
First Sunday of the month at 2pm ET & Third Thursday of the month at 8pm ET
During this kickoff, we will get to know the folks in the group and do an intro to healing justice.
Sessions will last 1-2 hours. We will periodically reevaluate the schedule to make sure it is accessible to those who attend the sessions.
Where?
Zoom! You only need to sign up once to join the collective, and then we will send you calendar invites to the events including zoom access information. We will also add you to a whatsapp group where you can connect with folks outside of the sessions and share resources.
Cost?
100% FREE! But if you are able to contribute to funding this program, anything helps. You can donate at malikah.org/donate and comment "healing justice"! We appreciate your generous contribution.
Malikah Healing Justice Testimonials
"Last year when COVID-19 began, I found myself seeking safe and affirming virtual communities to help me cope with the gravity of the situation. After taking a leap of faith and attending a healing circle, I instantly felt that I belonged and that my whole self was welcomed into the space. From then on, the circles have continued to be a brave, grounding, inclusive, healing, and joyful community for me. I love that my voice is heard, and that I am seen. Shukrun Malikah!"- Reda Taleb
"I love how enriching and layered the circle was. There was a range of topics and it flowed through different ways of connecting in community (exercises, reflections, break out rooms, group dialogue"
"Sharing such personal thoughts and finding they resonate with others builds an incredible sense of solidarity. "
"Being able to hear others perspectives during the call was incredibly validating and heartfelt. I personally felt relief knowing I wasn't battling some of these internal struggles alone."
