Amidst a perfect storm of COVID-19 & state sanctioned violence, perhaps to be Black and Brown and queer in America in 2020 is to be in a constant state of mourning. But what if we challenged that notion? What if we had the audacity to also reach for love & joy? In collaboration with Brooklyn Community Pride Center and GRIOT Circle, Cumbe Dance invites you to join us for the second round of Generation Rebel Talks, a three part series of intergenerational conversations celebrating love as the ultimate revolutionary act. Together, let’s nourish ourselves, nourish our community and organize ourselves to build the world we want to live in. 

Friday, September 25, 2020 | 3:00pm - 4:00pm | Radical Self-Care: That Deep Self-Love
Black, lesbian, mother, warrior, poet, Audre Lorde said “ Caring for myself is not self-indulgence. It is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.” Join Burlesque Icon Chicava Honeychild to talk strategy around radical self care. Chicava will share her above top secret, super charged bathing ritual. A combination scents, salts, Tao meditation and spiritual mind treatment, Agape International style, for deep self love, connection and shoring up your energy to rock out these challenging times. Let’s get in touch with what brings us joy and nourish it. For how can we show up for each other, if we can’t show up for ourselves?

Friday, October 2, 2020 | 3:00pm - 4:00pm | Radical Self-Care: Pour Some Love Into Us
Black Therapist & Mental Health Advocate Mikah Maly-Karros envisions self-care as being about community. Here she is on how we take care of ourselves in the midst of world-shaking events: “I think it’s going to be a lot about us creating spaces where we can come together and either just laugh and have fun and dance and enjoy life the way that we do, and have a space to escape and forget and feel loved.” Let’s gather around the “kitchen table” and talk strategy around radically caring for each other. Let’s pour some love and joy into our community to fortify ourselves for what could be an intense rest of the year with a potential second wave of Covid-19 and an intense election season. For if we can’t show up for each other, how can we show up as change makers in the world?

Friday, October 9, 2020 | 3:00pm - 4:00pm | Rallying Behind A Cause: Wrapping the World in Love
We know the fight for LGBTQ+ lives has always been Black and Brown. The fight against state sanctioned violence has always been Black & Brown. History is on our side. How do we walk this path and keep our hearts open? Audaciously strive for a world full of love and joy? Let’s do some radical visioning around what our perfect world looks like and then let’s strategize about how we can achieve this dream. For how can we change the world, if we can’t even imagine what a new and better world looks like?

Hosted and facilitated by PFLAG, this online meeting will provide a safe space for individuals who identify as Black and who have lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) loved ones to gather virtually and find community. This group will provide family-to-family support with a focus on the intersection of acceptance and one’s experience as a member of the Black diaspora. While the experiences of being Black in America vary tremendously, there are shared cultural factors that play a role in supporting a family’s well-being, resiliency and understanding when a loved one comes out as LGBTQ.

The group will meet online on the fourth Sunday of every month and will be facilitated by PFLAG NYC’s Program Manager, Kalima McKenzie-Simms.

The link to join the meeting on Zoom will be provided to everyone who registers in advance. For more information, please contact Kalima McKenzie-Simms at ....
