“There is a future that I see for you my Loves I do believe.”

“And we will care for each other, as the world around us unravels. And we will tend to the spark of hope that lives within our grieving hearts.
And we are here, now in this present moment, lifting our voices and hearts. And we are here, we have come together, we are tending the spark of hope.”
Heather Houston Heather is a community choir director, vocal coach, song writer, and community weaver.
“Blame, shame, and guilt come from being unable to express our grief properly. How can we pretend to be happy, peaceful and loving when we have so much pain and grief? I believe the future of our world depends greatly on the manner in which we handle our grief. Positive expressions of our grief are healing.”
Sobonfu Somé was a Burkinabe teacher and writer, specializing in topics of spirituality. Her village elders sent her and her husband to the West to share the practice of grief ritual.
“Building community is to the collective as spiritual practice is to the individual.”
Grace Lee Boggs was a community organizer and elder in movements for racial and economic justice. She was inspired by the daily struggles of the oppressed and shifted away from revolution towards "solutionaries."
