In this thought-provoking episode, Kate Pearl takes us on a journey where healing is not just personal—it's political. Healing from racial trauma isn't just about survival; it’s an act of resistance and revolution. Kate discusses how resting, raging, and resisting are all part of the same process that allows us to reclaim our joy, creativity, and collective care in the fight for freedom.
Kate delves into why healing, both individually and within our communities, matters in the fight against systemic oppression. She breaks down how healing makes space for the future, helps us reconnect to our roots, and empowers us to continue the work of resistance in ways that uplift us.
