Mixed-Race Identity: In-Between Worlds & Wounds

Holding the tension of victim and perpetrator in our bodies and lineages

Online | English

What will we be exploring in this Lab?

As calls for healing racialized trauma are growing, the process can become polarized into a split between people of color and white people. Yet many of us hold the tension between these polarized racial identities and/or ancestral lineages within our own bodies and psyches. This lab is for those who feel called to explore what is needed to hold this tension within ourselves—between victim and perpetrator, between racial identities, and between our ancestral lineages—so that we can ultimately become more whole.

Who is invited to participate?

This Lab is for mixed-race individuals who carry within themselves the tension between different racial identities and ancestral lineages in a way that feels personally significant. Whether you are biracial, multiracial, or hold this complexity in other ways, you are welcome if you feel called to this exploration. We invite participants with some foundation in therapeutic or inner work, ideally familiar with Thomas Hübl's approach. This requires commitment to the full journey—consistent attendance over nearly a year, meeting every 3-4 weeks.

More about the journey of the Lab

We will begin by building trust together. This will include becoming oriented to one another and to the nuances and complexities within our mixed-race identities, and exploring what belonging feels like in our complexity. Building on this foundation, we will look into the deeper collective wounds that inform the split many of us feel internally. This involves presencing both victim and perpetrator aspects of our identities, along with the larger collective wounds that shape them. Our aim is integration on personal and collective levels.
