Bringing the arts to nature. Historically, urban communities shy away from nature, in particular, the Forest. This event hope is to decolonize and unstigmatize nature by exploring the things we love most, together, in nature. Speakers from the United States Forest Service will be present, theologians to help diverse communities find Awe in nature, along with tree wrapping and fire pit discussions.

Rhode Island for Community and Justice (RICJ) has an afterschool program where youth come weekly to work on social justice issues in the community. Youth Action Council or Y.A.C. is one of the many programs we have with middle and high schools students that is centered around developing, sharpening, and implementing youth’s communication, leadership, facilitation, and community organizing skills. The Youth Action Council plans student-led and designed projects that display RICJ's mission while inspiring youth to positive action.

The youth created a community panel event where community members are invited to celebrate racial healing day with YAC members. The goal is to have people share stories, lessons, and experiences on how to heal in community. Food from different cultures will be served.

This event is to provide space to learn from elders and ancestors through the expression of art created by Ms. Julie Dash. Her 1991 independent film "Daughters of the Dust” premiered at Sundance during a time when depictions of Black women were inaccurate and few. Ms. Dash wrote, directed, and produced the film and went on to win the Sundance Award for Best Cinematography. This led Ms. Dash to become the first African American woman to have a wide theatrical release. This year the Black History Month theme for the Southern Illinois University campus is “Ancestral Healing.” The theme is chosen by the Black Resource Center on campus. This movie allows us to step into a portal to learn from parts of our culture that have been forgotten and misplaced. Remembering and recalling the truth is racial healing 101 which supports us in connecting with our Ancestors. We are pleased and grateful to provide space for this course on remembering.

"Inspiring Unity: 'We All Belong Here' – A Racial Healing Day Event for Middle Schoolers" – Join us in the week of January 16th as we foster an environment where children express their feelings and learn the power of inclusivity. Through creative writing and open dialogue, our young participants will explore and spread the crucial message: 'We All Belong Here.' Let's inspire our children to see the world not through the lens of race but through the unity of humanity. Together, we can shape a future defined by understanding and respect.

I am interested in exploring and sharing our personal roles in pursuing racial justice in our own lives in in our community.
