Kara Wood was made in Mexico, born in New Mexico and raised in California by a first generation Southern Italian American single mother who instilled in her early on: music and books are important, and we are abolitionists.
Kara means black in Turkish, beloved in Italian, and friend in Irish. She is a mother and an animist folk herbalist who helps folks deepen and activate the ancestral connections inside their bodies.
Kara believes that we hold the ancestor realm inside of our bodies. That the elements, the plants, the trees and mushrooms are our ancestors and it all comes down to energy exchange.
Epigenetics, Mythology, and Living Folk culture direct and inform her work. She is committed to collective liberation, reparations and rematriation; shifting culture away from white supremacy, away from injustice and intolerance.
Kara holds a BFA in fine art and documentary photography and was part of the first Cecemmana cohort, Ancestral Apothecary's three year clinical herbal certification program.
**On today's episode, Kara mentioned she is traveling to Sicily this summer and wanted the share the organization, Radici Siciliane, that she is traveling with.
