How do we do effective, sustainable social change...without burning out, internalizing systemic toxicity, or replicating urgency culture?

A trauma-informed anthology with contributions from 13 activists and community organizers--for readers of adrienne maree brown, Staci K. Haines, and Ejeris Dixon

When your work is inextricable from your identity, your community, and your own liberation, you need a unique praxis of care to sustain it--and for mission-driven activists, organizers, and changemakers working under oppressive systems, making space to center vital needs like rest, self-care, and healthy boundaries isn't as simple as clocking out.

Practicing Liberation reorients collective justice work toward a model that transforms the effects of injustice, harm, and oppressive systems into resilience, joy, and community care. Through frameworks like trauma-informed methodology, transformative movement organizing, engaged Buddhism, and healing justice, editors Hala Khouri and Tessa Hicks Peterson show readers how to:

  • Embody healing, wellness, and beloved community
  • Guard against replicating systems of harm
  • Disrupt racist, classist, anti-queer, and anti-trans behavior and systems
  • Celebrate creativity and radical imagination in movement work
  • Center healing from intergenerational trauma, white supremacy culture, and extractive capitalism
  • Honor that self-care is a necessity--not a luxury--that strengthens our collectives
