Disrupt and push back against capitalism and white supremacy by connecting to the liberating power of rest, daydreaming, and naps as a foundation for healing and justice.
Rest Is Resistance is rooted in spiritual energy and centered in Black liberation, womanism, Somatics, and Afrofuturism. Trisha Hersey, AKA
