About the event
After a gentle, meditative hike through the redwoods, learners gather at the roots of the Methuselah tree – an 1800+ year old redwood which has survived centuries of logging and colonization through their unique knots and burls. Here, learners celebrate the many ways Disability Justice manifests in nature, find power in their own somatic patterns and needs, and craft an offering to the tree using native plants.
By the end of this workshop, participants will leave with:
An understanding of the ways Redwoods exemplify Disability Justice ⚖️
An appreciation for the divergences/detours their own bodies take on the path to belonging 🌀
Appreciation and wonder for the Methuselah tree ✨
