"Underneath this asphalt, our ancestors still hear us, and they're calling on us to continue. This is not the end. This is the beginning of a new chapter."
-Corrina Gould, Sogorea Te’ Land Trust
Join us in Oakland or virtually for A Sacred Kinship: Reciprocity and Rematriation with tribal leader and visionary Corrina Gould (Co-Founder & Director of Sogorea Te’ Land Trust), interdisciplinary artist and activist Ariel Luckey (Development Director of Sogorea Te’ Land Trust) and the soul-stirring voices of Wildchoir.
As a whole society, we are still discovering what it means to confront the harms of our histories and to understand what it takes to heal, repair and restore. Amid the fractures and collapse of our modern world, new life is being planted and old ways are being remembered - rooted in Indigenous wisdom and the traditional ecological knowledge that is connected to place. Leading the way are Indigenous women and communities revitalizing their languages and lifeways, reclaiming their lands and inviting humanity to return to a deeper belonging with the world.
What does it mean to be a guest on Indigenous peoples land? How can we step into kinship, accountability and right relationship with each other and the places where we live? How can we participate in the shift from separation and supremacy to a new chapter grounded in soil, sacredness and solidarity?
Come gather as we learn from and support the vital work of Sogorea Te’ Land Trust, listen to the stories and heart wisdom of Corrina Gould, and be uplifted by the creative fire of Ariel Luckey and Wildchoir. We are being called into sacred kinship together...listening to our ancestors, future generations and the living Earth.
