About the event
participatory world-building is the embodiment of cooperative futures. in this immersion, we head to Birdland Farms + Residencies to support in the building and designing of a fence for the land!
philosophy --
each world we build is governed by the Laws of the Common Healing Universe a set of principles outlining our collective commitments towards the daily living of our dreams
our intention is seeding the Interconnected Web of Sustenance, an emerging mutual aid network seeking to meet our material needs together
Birdland lives inside a Black rural community in Mississippi. we will be opening ourselves up to teachings around self-defense and locally relevant foodways. we ask that you take this into consideration when booking. if you are unsure, please get in touch with the organizers
this particular immersion is a healing space by and for Black and Indigenous people. if this is not you, please stand by for future multicultural experiences/
