Frequently Asked Questions

How do you ensure the safety of this Black-centered space, and what should non-Black participants know?
At Reviving Roots, our top priority is honoring Black healing. We ask everyone in our space to acknowledge that white supremacy exists and commit their words and actions to ending racial disparities in health and wellness.
We require all participants, regardless of background, to sign our Community Agreements before joining any event. These agreements set clear expectations for creating a safe and respectful environment where Black folks can heal, thrive, and feel supported.
For those who may struggle to understand the importance of this space or have difficulty respecting it, we’re happy to refer you to a therapy organization that can help you explore and unpack your discomfort in a productive way.
You can review our full Community Agreements here.
I'm white. What should I know before entering this space?
Reviving Roots is a Black-centered space built to protect and prioritize Black healing. If you’re white and plan to enter this space, please understand: this may not be the space for everyone—and that’s okay.
If you do choose to show up, here’s what’s expected:
Listen more than you speak
Don’t center your emotions, guilt, or need for reassurance
Don’t expect to be educated—this is not a learning space for you
If you feel discomfort, reflect on it outside of this space
If that feels challenging, that’s valid—but our team is not available to process white discomfort. This space exists for Black healing—and we intend to keep it that way.
We ask all white participants to read this letter before attending:
