Who We Are

Nothing traumatizes the human spirit more than the imposition of an absolute upon it. This is because an emperor takes form that directly informs. Tragically, "communication" is neither imagined nor whispered.

What sets us apart?

Our capacity to respond to both trauma and systemic oppression. This is why we believe "communication" is so important.

| freeing our living |

Meaningful change does not trickle from the top on down. It happens when we act upon time, space, and what we relationally and socially sustain together from the bottom on up. Meaningful change happens in and through communication.
