BLACK HISTORY MONTH 2023

Theme: Celebrating our Sisters, Saluting our Sisters, and Honouring Matriarchs of Movements

https://www.blackhistorymonth.org.uk You're invited to this edition of The Crow's Nest, an encounter between Miche Fabre Lewin and Yolanda Sokiri , two women artists and wisdom practitioners who share the Earth heart of African | European lineages. Inviting in ancient traditions and contemporary knowing, they are in a conversation to explore how ‘white' bodied kin can be taking openhearted responsibility for the slow, deeply generative and liberatory process of uncovering white supremacy and choosing to live with true accountability. Through artful sequences of ritual, poetic weavings and embodied interactions with matter, metaphor and mystery, Miche and Yolanda inhabit the deep trust work needed for nurturing conversations, kinships and cultivating communities of freedom between cultures. In November Miche and Yolanda launch Living Stories, an online Depth Encounter for ‘white’ bodied kin who are committed to individual and collective liberation and are heeding the call from ‘Black’ and ‘Brown’ kin to address the ‘white’ privilege of our racialised ‘whiteness’.
