jamilah malika abu-bakare makes anti-oppression accessible to mindfulness practitioners by connecting the two as practices. her skill relating anti-oppression as a practice akin to our mindful movement practice is rooted in her work as co-visionary of the (now defunct) Positive Space Initiatives at Kula Annex dating back to 2010. she is currently the anti-oppression facilitator for New Leaf Foundation, Mindful Strength, and Mindfulness Without Borders and has taught upon request from Toronto to Terrace and as far as Rhode Island. she is a proud member of the Brown Girls Yoga collective based in Toronto and in addition to teaching trauma-informed, mindfulness-based yoga, she is a writer and an artist (SAIC MFA ‘19.)
