Why Public Narrative Matters

In times of sys­tem­ic injustice and polit­ic­al crises act­iv­ism demands more than just pas­sion and ded­ic­a­tion — it requires sus­tain­able strategies for care, heal­ing, and empower­ment. Too often, move­ments struggle with exhaus­tion, intern­al con­flicts, and the weight of oppress­ive struc­tures. Too often, act­iv­ists and organ­iz­a­tions push for change at the cost of their own well-being.

  • How do we con­tin­ue fight­ing for justice when the weight of the world feels unbear­able and we feel exhausted, help­less and dis­con­nec­ted from our own purpose?
  • How do we sus­tain ourselves and our move­ments in the face of sys­tem­ic oppres­sion, burnout cul­ture, and polit­ic­al repres­sion and viol­ence?
  • How do we pre­vent intern­al con­flicts going unad­dressed, care work being under­val­ued, and col­lect­ive strength erod­ing under the pres­sure of urgency.

Our Col­lect­ive Care & Power Classes help act­iv­ists, organ­izers, and com­munit­ies build spaces where care and power go hand in hand. We address the hid­den wounds of act­iv­ism — because sus­tain­able change starts from within.

What Will You Learn

These classes are not about self-care in isol­a­tion — they are about build­ing inter­de­pend­ent move­ments that care and power in tan­dem. We use a mix of storytelling, somat­ic exer­cises, group reflec­tions, and cre­at­ive prac­tices — because polit­ic­al change starts from with­in. You’ll leave with con­crete
tools to strengthen both your­self and your community.

Exploring the intersection of collective care, power, and political resistance

Identifying and dismantling internalized oppression and its impact on movements

Developing conflict transformation strategies that strengthen solidarity

Cultivating emotional resilience and sustainable and regenerative activism practices

Building WELCOMING SPACES & networks of accountability, support, and collective empowerment

Reimagining power as something we create together, not something we take alone

»Movements have narratives. They tell stories, because they are not just about rearranging economics and politics. They also rearrange meaning. And they are not just about redistributing the goods. They are about figuring out what is good.«

Who Are Our Classes For

No mat­ter your polit­ic­al path, we cre­ate trans­form­at­ive spaces where iden­tit­ies inter­sect, struggles con­nect, nations tran­scend, and solid­ar­ity grows.

Listen to Our Participants & Partners

We always say that »we make the road by walk­ing«, even more, but it’s the voices of those we walk with that show us that our work actu­ally makes of dif­fer­ence in people’s per­son­al and polit­ic­al lives.

»This class gave me tools to care for myself without guilt — and to sup­port my com­munity in ways that feel sus­tain­able. It was a game-changer for me and my community.«

EVA LESTER
Seni­or Supervisors

»I nev­er real­ized how much intern­al­ized oppres­sion was shap­ing our move­ment. The facil­it­at­ors cre­ated a space of heal­ing and power. I feel re-energized.«

EVA LESTER
Seni­or Supervisors

»Finally, a space where care and res­ist­ance coex­ist. I left with strategies, hope, and a new sense of col­lect­ive strength. I went through a moment of crisis that is gone now.«
