MIDWEEK February 23: Dr. Angela Parker | "Breathing In" in the Midst of Stifled Breath

​The breath is fundamental, but the weight of overlapping oppressions can hinder our connection with our breath. Breath is all the more important for those engaging in any kind of activism. In this MIDWEEK, we will learn a breath practice for social justice advocates. Join us to center yourself in your body in the midst of a world that would deny your breath.

She has written many articles and essays and is the author of If God Still Breathes, Why Can’t I? Black Lives Matter and Biblical Authority (2021).
