A journey to call in states of repair and collective liberation.~ the heart is a holding~ is a visceral journey through birth, life and death cycles across personal, intergenerational and ancestral time. A journey to call in states of repair and collective liberation. These words call us into relationship, inviting us into the role of witness, to set intention and feel into the echoes and desires of Freedom. Lateisha speaks into the waves, currents and somatic archive of the runaway, the fugitive, the marooned ones to help them return to their dreams and no longer shoulder the traumas of erasure. Each poem, text and world-building script is ritual, meditation to alchemise pain, loss and grief as intimate reflections of love, anger and hope through the medicine of connection. ~ the heart is a holding~ is a generous offering that caresses the inner and outer natures of interdependence. Moving through landscapes of spirituality, earth futurity and memory. As a pathway to call in and embody the present moment, guiding feeling and action to move through the ever present hauntings of social-climate injustices as apocalyptic reality. And invite knowledges that speak to healing through the lens of survivorship and legacy. As transformation. As the gathering of love, holding and dignity for Black mothers, earthworkers and care-givers beyond gendering, beyond racialisation, beyond this time.
