The three-day weekend is an opportunity to join hundreds of comrades from across the region and globe as we come together to share and learn from each other’s work, build and renew relationships, and celebrate the wins and strides of the Southern freedom fight this year. The theme “Don’t Stop, Get it, Get it” is an invitation and a calling to our collective liberation and resistance in the face of great challenges, real threats, and grave harm to our communities and people.
Notice: We will have participants on site with severe allergies to certain scents and essences, and have one participant that has extreme chemical sensitivities and are deathly allergic to oranges, grapefruits, a lot a raw citrus in a space, roses, and fresh flowers. Two of the healing tents will be using some mild essential oils and herbs, the 3rdis a scent free healing tent. People with sensitivities will want to stay clear of the pavilion and healing tents. We are doing our best to make the Value Chains workshop this morning 10:30-12:30 in the workshop center round room a scent-free workshop. If you wore perfume, pre-shave splash, or deodorant that has these scents in it today, please do not go to the Value Chains workshop and ask for consent before giving hugs. If you have visited a healing justice tent for a treatment, please do not go to the Value Chains workshop and ask consent before giving hugs. Thanks for your help to support disability justice and an inclusive community.
