Through exploring core human needs for safety, belonging, and dignity, Haines reveals how polarization and political trauma live in our bodies – and how we can work with these embodied experiences to build authentic power and connection. Drawing on decades of experience in transformative justice and movement building, she offers practical wisdom for cultivating ourselves while fostering the conditions for true Beloved Community, even in times of deep division. Join us for this timely conversation about healing, action, and hope.
