“Are we doing the things that we need to do to co-regulate and to self- regulate so that we can be as strategic as possible and so that we can also not take each other out in the process of getting free?”
Erica Woodland (he/him) is a facilitator, consultant, psychotherapist and healing justice practitioner with more than 20 years of experience working at the intersections of movements for racial, gender, economic, trans & queer justice. Erica is a co-editor of the anthology ‘Healing Justice Lineages: Dreaming at the Crossroads of Liberation, Collective Care and Safety’ (North Atlantic Books, 2023) & Founder/Executive Director of the National Queer and Trans Therapists of Color Network (NQTTCN.com).
In this special episode, Anjali and Erica discuss:
Erica’s journey and path into the work, a calling from the ancestors
Collective memory regarding the legacy of resistance, roots and lessons for building movements and healing.
Foundational premises of healing justice and the abolitionist approach to justice
The meaning of healing
Learning from the mistakes of our movement ancestors
Misconceptions that people have about healing justice work
The integrality of dissent
How we can prevent the values of dominant culture, for example, capitalism or hyper individualism from seeping into movement work
Practices of care
