Hawe,

You’re invited to a weekend retreat in Tulsa August 11-13, 2023. This is a WTP Special open to all, focused on Native-led rematriation for all people: with rematriation workshops conducted via reflective writing, ancestral reparative work, acknowledging dis/inheritance, and working with dreams and land to rebuild ancestral land connection. The purpose of this work is to provide healing resources; to support the Land Back movement; and to reestablish land connection as a human norm.

WTP has fantastic guest facilitators visiting 8/11-8/13, including…

Maria Minnis: https://www.mariaminnis.com/h

Ashanti Chaplin:

This weekend retreat is free and open to everyone, and all are invited to bring an ancestral language to work with (which you may be learning, or know fluently) during the workshops coming up this August 11-13!
