What roles do magic, animism, and spirituality play in our movements for liberation? What roles have they played historically? Why are some ideas hidden, suppressed by the State? How do we harness these ideas for both personal transformation & collective liberation?

Participants in this community-led group will discuss these questions and more! This is a space for deepening both political and spiritual practices. At the August gathering, participants will discuss Racism as Zoological Witchcraft, a scintillating combination of critical race theory, social commentary, veganism, and gender analysis by media studies scholar Aph Ko.

“Racism as Zoological Witchcraft is a fascinating, groundbreaking, thoughtful work that shows nuanced relationships between systems that historically dehumanize people of color and the consumption of animals as food. This transformative framework is as disturbing as it is enlightening. Aph Ko steadfastly demonstrates that veganism can be more than a matter of health and lifestyle—that plant-based diets can be a radical practice in valuing the aligned rights of all living beings on Earth as well as a practice in dismantling systems on our planet that devalue humanity.”—Ytasha L.
