In early summer, there was an experience that created a rupture between members of HoneyRoot’s Council for Unheard Voices. Within this rupture, Pilar Mejia, a member of the Council for Unheard Voices, was disappointed by several individual and organizational decisions. We are truly sorry that Pilar has experienced hurt by any Council member. We are taking her reflection seriously and have taken steps towards accountability, where we feel we misstepped. We also want to acknowledge that doing intersectional work is not straightforward, nor without places unseen, continually fraught with the unwrapping of supremacy conditioning, as well as learning to be with the various traumas present within each of us. We acknowledge that there will be harm that occurs by the nature of this process, and we continue to remain committed to lessening that impact of harm. We acknowledge that we will not do this work perfectly and understand we are in practice with the long arc of transformation through the rupture & repair process. We acknowledge that repair will not always be the end result of all events and that we all may have different perspectives, needs, wants on how that repair is shaped. We are committed to bringing in social justice educators who are steeped in the field of healing/transformative justice, moving forward, and to continuing our individual and collective work of uncovering and unraveling harmful cultural conditioning.

"I now see that it is my body that brings my spiritual life and my practical life together. I am forever changed. I’m feel how ready I am to step out and share. What a beautiful, well-held ride."
"HoneyRoot's School really tapped into the primal aspect of me, the place that remembers it is a birthright to be at home in the wilderness. I'm willing to feel and process fear to live this birthright."
"HoneyRoot’s (embodiment) school provided me with more than I ever could have imagined! I now have tools, embodied resources, and friendships that serve my work life, my personal life, and my spiritual life.
