Departing from the incantation proposed by G/D THYSELF: Spirit Strategy On Raising Free Black Children, this conversation focuses on the healing power of spiritual practices. Ancestral cosmologies, Afrodiasporic communities engaging with intergenerational traumas, and fragmented identities, reveal ways in which Blackness is involved in daily processes of creating one’s own reality.

The conversation is moderated by writer and cultural programmer Simone Zeefuik.
