I Am Because We Are

About the Retreat

IABWA logo.jpg

Through dialogue, reflection, storytelling, ritual, and nature-based practices, we will explore how generational trauma has shaped our beliefs, behaviors, and interactions with ourselves and one another. Together, we will create space for grief, release, and repair, honoring the sacredness of our shared lineage and the transformative potential it holds. This retreat offers a path back to wholeness, rooted in love, accountability, and the liberating power of collective healing as brothers and sisters.

 

“In the spirit of Ubuntu, we return to the wisdom of our ancestors to heal the fractures and reclaim our collective wholeness.”

We invite healers, artists, movement leaders, and wisdom-keepers of Afro-Indigenous descent to share their gifts at  I am Because We Are.  We are calling in facilitators who honor Mother Earth, reclaim ancestral wisdom, and support the emotional, spiritual, and physical wellness of people of African descent.
