11: Voices from Liberation School

In this special and unique episode, many voices from the first-ever Liberation School cohort share about what healing justice means to us, what beauty we are bringing and seeking in our movements, songs and stories from the Highlander Research and Education Center in East Tennessee including an interview with an elder, and what we seek to create moving forward. Tune in for some awesome grassroots leaders' voices from the South and beyond.

PRACTICE: Download the next episode (Practice 11) to do a simple reflection and conversation exercise to dig deeper into the medicine you have to offer, and that which you are seeking this year... all inspired by an awesome resistance song. It's great for individual reflection or a team icebreaker with your crew.
