Being Human: adrienne maree brown, Prentis Hemphill, Sydney Morgan
In the fall of 2020 we found ourselves in the midst of a pivotal election, a global pandemic, economic collapse, escalating action to end the war on Black life and more. Holding so much at once - even the victories - can be straining and overstimulating to our bodies and spirits.
This episode comes from a series hosted by our friends at Faith Matters Network called How to Get Through: collective resilience in a world on fire. It was designed to prepare social justice movements to weave healing and care into our lives and work before, during and after crises and big “movement moments” like this one.
This first conversation with Sidney Morgan, adrienne maree brown, Prentis Hemphill and Micky ScottBey Jones is about how we actually do the work of being human together - flawed and all, mistakes, conflict and pain included. How do we survive these times? How do we navigate conflict? How do we live into accountability? How do we take care of each other along the way.
It is a powerful and brave exploration of the practice of being change, not just doing change. And it is essential medicine for this moment.
Enjoy.
