Healing Justice is both a term and movement, first coined by the Atlanta-based Kindred Southern Healing Justice Collective in 2007, that addresses individual/collective generational trauma from systemic violence and oppression by reviving ancestral healing practices and building new, more inclusive ones. Healing Justice calls for a cultural shift in three main areas:
the way we engage with loved ones, neighbors, authorities, and bystanders.
the way we organize and do movement work.
the societal standards for delivering “justice”.
