  • In profile, and silhouetted by light coming in through a window, a person with long hair in a ponytail holds up both hands in anguish. Their face is tipped skyward and their mouth is open as though crying or shouting.

  • The front cover of Tricia Hersey’s book “Rest Is Resistance: A Manifesto”
    When I think about the history of the Transatlantic Slave Trade, chattel slavery, and plantation labor, I am stunned by how much we have chosen to forget that capitalism was built from these systems.

  • The front cover of Tricia Hersey’s book “Rest Is Resistance: A Manifesto”
    Rest is resistance because it is a counternarrative to the script of capitalism and white supremacy for all people.

  • Two LatinX preteens, crouched on the ground, feeding three black chickens and a speckled rooster.
    Like the free-roaming roosters of the Caribbean, no one can tell me I don’t belong.

  • The Juneteenth flag: A solid white five-pointed star on a field of blue and red. The border between the blue top half and the red bottom half is an arch that passes through the center of the star. The five-pointed star is surrounded by the outline of a larger 12-pointed star.
    May we remember the atrocities that brought us here.

  • A black-and-white “Black Lives Matter” flag flying on a short flagpole being carried by a Black person with glasses and a procedure mask, in a march. The flag is the central part of the image, with the person's head, blurry, just visible in the lower left as they pass by the viewer.
    This ritual is written for a congregation to bless a Black Lives Matter banner and raise it on their church building. It could easily be adapted for rededication of a banner, or for other banners that a congregation might display on their building to declare their values.

  • A Black child around 8 years old stares down at a desk covered in books, with a dismayed or tired look on their face.
    From the beginning, the story of Black people in America has been told through the lens of white supremacy.

  • Outdoors on a lawn, a group of Black friends are seated as if at a picnic. They're smiling and laughing with abundant joy.
    If you’re seeking sacred Black “text” in our tradition, you have to examine the way our Black ancestors lived.
