Kindred Southern Healing Justice Collective is a project conceived by healers and organizers  of color in the Southern United States in 2007, as a response to the crisis of trauma, violence and social conditions in that region.  Kindred was organized  shortly after Hurricane Katrina and set up healing salons  for activists during the 2007 and 2010 social forums, offering body work and counseling.  Collective members also created the recording Good Medicine, which contains interviews with healers and activists in the South.

Sound healer and Kindred activist Cara Page discusses dissociation, memory and resilience in political movements, while Kindred member Paulina Helm-Hernandez relates collective trauma to how we inhabit our bodies as well as how we deal with our emotions and the physical space around us.
