Practicing mutual support, the vivid grove orients to movement as offering, and nourishing one's self-awareness and care as ground from which communalism and togetherness is sustainable. Community connections arise from growing, listening, moving slowly, and of land and human-nature ethics. With an ethic and fierce committment to decolonizing and liberatory practice, I put in front of others, I place community connections at the center of these movements. This includes relations with local friends, folks afar, with the natural environment, ancestral connections, the elements, atmosphere, and in reverence and resonance with indigenous peoples and practices on the lands where we live and meet.
