Healing our communities means acknowledging the wounds the world still carries.
Our work in generational healing and trauma within Latine communities cannot exist without acknowledging colonization, not only as history but as a reality that continues today.
Our Indigenous ancestors experienced displacement, violence, and attempts to erase their culture. Those wounds live in our collective body. Yet many communities around the world are still living this reality right now.
To honor our ancestors, we must also stand with those who are currently being displaced, silenced, or stripped of their land and identity.
On this day, we remember the lives lost and the people still living under occupation and fear in Palestine and beyond.
We stand in solidarity with all Indigenous and colonized peoples in Palestine, Sudan, the Amazon, Western Sahara, West Papua, the Congo, and all regions still facing displacement, occupation, and erasure.
Collective healing means remembering that colonization takes many forms: military occupation, resource extraction, and forced migration. Healing and justice are intertwined.
