You're so right.
Does #ResmaaMenakem discuss culture building in his book #MyGrandmothersHands?
@meoutloud that's awesome. I wasn't familiar with Dr. Nichols but his work definitely sounds in alignment with #abolition and other justice-aligned values.
I'm a huge fan of #BellHooks & #Freire and adore the work of #AdrienneMareeBrown
#ResmaaMenakem's work is so provocative. I've only read about half of #MyGrandmothersHands (Mostly because i needed time to process) but I really appreciate his candor and the way he addresses how the trauma of oppression gets stored in the body.
His book was the reason I started seeking more information about #somatics and the work #healingjustice practitioners in #movement spaces
Any folks interested in discussing #healingjustice and healing #modalities like #somatics #polyvagaltheory #ifs etc?
Haven't read #BesselVanDerKolk's #TheBodyKeepstheScore but I've read about half of #ResmaaMenakem's book #MyGrandmothersHands and taken a somatics course.
Would love to be in a community of practice with other folks who find this information useful
Bist Du überzeugt, #Rassismus schon längst verstanden zu haben und schon "woke" zu sein, genug zu tun? Dann bitte ich Dich Dir dieses Gespräch zwischen #ResmaaMenakem und #GaborMaté (vielleicht auch noch das zweite mit Tami Simon) anzuschauen:

Noch nicht genug? schau es Dir noch mal an und ersetzt in Gedanken Rassismus mit einer anderen Unterdrückungsform, z.B. Sexismus. Dann wirst Du verstehen, was alles noch zu tun ist für echte #SocialJustice
