Heal Racialized Trauma from the Inside Out

White-body supremacy is a belief that has affected everyone, perpetuating the notion that the white body is the ultimate benchmark for measuring and evaluating all other bodies. However, the process of healing racial and intergenerational trauma is not always clear.

That’s why we would like to invite you to Healing Racialized Trauma, an online course led by Resmaa Menakem, a renowned trauma expert. In this article, we explore Somatic Abolitionism, a set of practices aimed at reducing racial injustice from within by fostering anti-racism and cultural-building practices to help to reduce racial injustice from the inside out.

“Trauma lives not in our brains or emotions, but in our bodies. This means that healing from racialized trauma needs to begin in our bodies.” — Resmaa Menakem

What is the somatic abolitionism philosophy?

Healing Racialized Trauma begins by addressing the body - Somatic Abolitionism is a practice and cultural building that promotes anti-racism, focusing on living and embodying a certain way of being in the world. The foundation of the teaching is based on the integration of somatic practices for healing trauma and addressing racial injustice from within. Somatic Abolitionism is a form of human experience that is emerging and encompasses more than just goals, attitudes, or beliefs.
