Work to support educators in the TTP mission of amplifying voices for truth telling and reparations

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States

repWorks is a think/do tank, a laboratory, a resource, and an enthusiastic node of the contemporary reparationist hive mind. We support leaders and organizations in their journey toward healing and repair. We have witnessed time and time again how embracing reparationist thought and action can unbind blocked energy in systems and release people to consider their own treasures (material, spiritual, and embodied) as resources for deeper change. Together with our clients and collaborators, we explore how, right now, with our own resources and initiative, we each hold the power to move toward Beloved community.
