Block, Build, Be: Earth

Do you get down at the intersection of social justice and Buddhism? Looking to build community with other folks dedicated to practicing spiritual and political liberation?

We’d like to officially invite you to apply for our Block Build Be Gathering!

What kind of gathering is Block Build Be?

Block Build Be 2021 will convene healers, seekers, activists and organizers, Buddhist and not, for a five-day gathering.

This gathering of ~35 people is lovingly crafted as:

  • majority ABIPOC (Asian, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color)

  • accessible and supportive in as many ways as possible

  • an encounter at the intersection of radical politics and spiritual seeking

  • agile enough to respond to urgent conditions, slow enough to remain aware of the body, environment, and present moment

  • fun yet serious

We’ll investigate how wisdom can support us inside and outside of organizing, exploring topics in Buddhism and social justice. We’ll create space to share our hopes and inspirations, our challenges and frustrations, and reflect on what each of us offers — Blocking, Building, and Being — at the intersection of Buddhism and social justice.
