Rehearsal: Ancestral and Global Majority Technologies and Wisdoms

Healing Justice Ldn emerged as a collaboration by Women of Colour living in London working on the intersection of community work, trauma and health, creativity and liberation practice. We build community health, repair and self-transformation rooted in disability justice, somatic survivor work and trauma-informed practice working with communities of colour and other marginalised and underrepresented groups.

This online session led by Dr Annabel Sowemimo, Alnoor Ladha and Pat McCabe, chaired by Farzana Khan, will connect anti-colonial international struggles and resistances towards reimagined and repaired paradigms of collective liberations.
