25 Mystic Soul: People of Color Centered Spirituality (Teresa P Mateus, Jade Perry, & Ra Mendoza)

Published May 1, 2018

Welcome to part 1 of a 3-part collaborative series between the Mystic Soul Project and Healing Justice Podcast!

This week, Mystic Soul co-founders Teresa P Mateus, Ra Mendoza, and Jade T. Perry join us in a self-facilitated conversation to talk faith origin stories (including Christianity, Catholicism, and Indigenous traditions), the work of bridging worlds, what it means to be POC-centered in approaching spirituality and activism, and grieving appropriation of POC ancestral traditions.

You can look forward to the next two installments of this collaborative series publishing once every few weeks, with upcoming topics including “Indigenous Reclamation” and “Contemplative Activism & Healing Practice.

Note: This episode was published under Irresistible’s previous name, Healing Justice Podcast.
