Queering Borders Beyond Nation States

This event is part of the Taking the State Out of the Body Spring Book Tour. This book is an interactive guide that moves between frameworks of collective liberation alongside trauma informed embodiment theory and practice. Readers from all backgrounds are invited to build an embodied sense of safety that has the power to make militarized borders, policing, and nation states obsolete. We need the resources offered in this book; from understanding geopolitical impacts of intergenerational trauma, to self-regulation in conflict, to transformative approaches to harm, to cultivating long-haul relationships, to building solidarity across our movements. At a time where fascism and colonial imperialism in the U.S. and Palestine are rearing their heads and right wing authoritarianism is on the rise globally, this book will equip you with the tools you need to move from rugged individualist models of self-preservation to liberatory frameworks of collective care and joint struggle.

This event is co-sponsored by Pushcart Judaica and Jewish Voice for Peace.
