Remembering us is the storytelling of everyday people dedicated to racial justice and healing. This series focuses on sharing the stories of our families and ancestors who identify as “white” and what the process of becoming white was, how it has shaped who we are and how we treat each other. You will meet people who are grappling with personal histories in the context of the historical atrocities that have constructed the country we live in. Thru the normalizing of truth telling, these stories are shared for the sake of creating a new legacy we can choose to live and leave.

    Episode 9 - Truth Telling, Reparations and Reconciliation: The Heartwork of Our Time

    In this episode we hear from Dr. David Ragland, professor, political activist and co-founder of the Truth Telling Project. Dr. Ragland describes reparations as a spiritual and material midpoint between truth and reconciliation, and shares the countless ways that we can, as a society, recognize harm and make amends in order to be in right relationship with one another, and ourselves. Dr. Ragland unfolds the deeper spiritual element of racial healing and justice in his work of transforming systems and policies at the local and national scale. Their work at the Truth Telling Project uses this spiritual lens to mobilize congregations and religious communities of many faiths across the country into action and creating repair.

    Episode 7: Moving Money Towards Amends

    In this episode, we are joined by Morgan Curtis, a facilitator, money coach, organizer and ritualist, dedicated to working with white people who hold wealth and class privilege towards redistribution, atonement, and repair. She talks with us about facing the realities of her family's wealth - how it was linked to the stolen lands of Indigenous people, the forced labor of enslaved African people, and the vitality of ecosystems. She addresses the silence and shame around inherited wealth, and what the process of aligning our values to move money toward collective liberation movements can look like and feel like. Her story shows us the deep connections to family, ancestors, fellow movement activists and beloved community that are birthed through this way of life.

    Episode 6 - Reparative Genealogy & The Racial Wealth Gap

    We are honored to launch the second series of Remembering Us with Briayna Cuffie and Lotte Lieb Dula who coined the term Reparative Genealogy, a practice of researching family lineage to understand each of our direct connections to slavery, and how to work toward repair. Through Briayna and Lotte’s stories we can plainly see the ongoing obstructions for some, and indisputable benefits for others, that have created and deepened the racial wealth gap throughout time. In this episode, we follow them both through their journeys of diving deeper into their family histories - the surprises, the throughlines, and intuitive unfoldings along the way. Throughout the episode their tangible connection to each other and to their purpose provide a living example of direct, interpersonal reparations. You’ll hear how together they’ve created an interactive website and portal Reparations4slavery.com for those looking to deepen their knowledge on reparative genealogy and reparations.
