Joy and rest is resistance! Join us for a monthly pop up event that will focus on Latinx self-care, joy, and rest. This session will have Berenice Dimas from Hood Herbalism as a special guest to guide us in a discussion about using traditions and plants for Latinx healing. 

Berenice received her B.A. in Women & Gender Studies, B.A. in Ethnic Studies with a concentration in Chicana and Chicano Studies, and a Minor in Latin American Studies from Cal State Fullerton. She then went on to get her M.A. in Multicultural Women’s and Gender Studies from Texas Woman's University. Her thesis focused on the metaphysics of holistic transformation in queer Chicana literature. She creates spaces for people to deepen their relationship with plants through her community based herbal education project Hood Herbalism.
