Ready to Foster Liberation in Your Practice?Unlearn Oppression & Cultivate a Liberatory Practice in Everyday Spaces
Education doesn’t just happen in classrooms; it happens in every conversation, every action, and every space where we learn about the world and our place in it.
Whether you’re a K-12 teacher, a mental health counselor, a university faculty member, or an individual keen on deepening your anti-oppressive practice, this is your invitation to move beyond “performative allyship” into meaningful, embodied change.
Critical Self-Reflection: We dig into how our own identities, privileges, and biases shape our practice.
Intersectional Frameworks: Drawing on Black feminism, queer theory, trans studies, and critical race theory, we’ll uncover how to address diverse needs across race, gender, sexuality, class, disability, and more.
Applied Action: We translate theory into practice, ensuring that your classroom, office, or community space becomes a site of transformation.
