The Kindred Collective Hosts Inaugural "Flourish & Flow: A Black Joy Beach Party"
The Kindred Collective at the University of California, Santa Barbara's Gevirtz Graduate School of Education, along with the NAACP, hosted a beach party on Sunday.
The event, titled "Flourish & Flow: A Black Joy Beach Party," was described by Dr. Vivian Storm, a lecturer in the UCSB Department of Counseling, as an opportunity to showcase that "our rest is our resistance, our joy is justice."
"This is just an opportunity to show that our rest is our resistance, our joy is justice. And, this is you know, liberation can take many forms,"
Another attendee, Nolan, viewed the event as a chance to rest, stating, "I think that we have been fighting the great fight, and we will continue to fight the great fight. But sometimes we just need a little rest."
