*What do we mean by "Body Liberation"?
Did you know that the roots of fatphobia can be traced back to the Transatlantic Slave Trade? This workshop examines how weight stigma and fatphobia shape our relationships with food. Guided conversations about intersectionality will help your team understand what white supremacy, transphobia, and ableism have to do with body policing – encouraging participants to consider their own biases and assumptions about people’s bodies and food choices. While we talk about why all bodies are worthy and have the right to exist as they are, you’ll be guided step-by-step through preparing some savory & sweet treats that you can share with your loved ones – or keep for yourself!
