In(queering) Spirit: Reflections on love, justice and embodiment

Healing Justice: Building a Religious Movement for Justice

We know that justice work is sacred work. And building intersectional movements for justice that take seriously racial, LGBTQ, economic, climate and food justice all at once is critically important.

But we cannot build justice movements that are populated with broken bodies, traumatized bodies, exhausted bodies. We must find a way to heal, build resiliency and practice new habits… personally, communally and as an earth-body.

The Center for Sustainable Justice will host its first conference this fall featuring skills-building, deep reflection, celebration and ethical spectacle to help us all learn to work religiously for justice. Co-sponsors are the Kaleo Center for Faith, Justice and Social Transformation and Minnesota Interfaith Power & Light.

Presenters include: Lisa Anderson from the Sojourner Truth Healing Circle through Auburn Seminary; Steve Newcom from Kaleo Center for Faith, Justice and Social Transformation; Erin Pratt from Minnesota Interfaith Power & Light; Lena Katherine Gardner from Black Lives Matter Minneapolis and more to come.

Scholarships available upon request. Contact: sustainjustice@gmail.com. Please note that building is fully accessible and gender-neutral bathrooms are available.
