“For I am my mother’s daughter, and the drums of Africa still beat in my heart.”
— Mary McLeod Bethune
Our connections to our ancestors and each other have the power to heal our wounds, freeing us to experience life in all its beauty and possibility.
Today we remember our ancestors who have struggled, those who perished, and those of us who have thrived despite centuries of enslavement, colonialism, and systemic racism. We will not allow their stories of courage, resistance, and survival to be banned, whitewashed or written out of our children’s textbooks altogether.
Take some time today to give thanks to our ancestors and our elders.
TODAY’S PRACTICE
Write a letter or just a few words to express your gratitude and love for your ancestors.
