Join Antoinette Cooper in conversation with Ruby Mendenhall (the Kathryn Lee Baynes Dallenbach LAS Professor in Sociology and African American Studies) and Karen Crawford Simms, MAMFT, LMHC (an experienced consultant, trainer, facilitator, and coach) about the stories embedded in UNRULY.

By joining the book launch, you will:

• Witness and empower Black women’s stories as medicine for personal and collective healing, honoring both ancestral wisdom and contemporary experiences.

• Experience how embodied storytelling can create new pathways for engaging with historical trauma, offering a unique technology for transparent communication and collective healing.

• Practice decolonial and generative ways of moving conversations about race and trauma from intellectual understanding into embodied wisdom.

• Discover tools for befriending wounds that have been subject to erasure, breaking the collective agreement of silence that has kept generations from wholeness.

• Connect with a community of practitioners committed to transformation, as we explore how UNRULY invites us to stay present with both beauty and brutality through the art of conscious witness.

“Unruly powerfully unmasks the scream that resides deep within – a pain that never surfaced – raw and clear,  the voice that speaks for centuries of voices in our midst. Antoinette Cooper’s life, fight, and revelation cast into “Poetry of the Edge” is a magnetizing, passionate account of her personal and collective journey.”  – Thomas Hübl, Co-founder, Pocket Project
