This 5 hour session will look at the spirt of suicide from a Haida social justice lens. Suicidality is a natural human response to carrying the burdens of 500+ colonial genocide. In this work we move away from seeing suicidality as something broken within the individual, but a reflection of the brokenness of the invisible systems of oppression that drive the world we live in. We will explore how we can resist the spirit of suicide during our “howling at the moon moments” by utilizing our breath, bodies, land and culture as forms of self regulation
