Bound By Loss: grief reading circle | September

Black Grief/White Grievance by Juliet Hooker

Theme: Political Grief, Racial Justice, and Whose Loss Gets Mourned
📅 Circle Date: September 18

September’s read is a brave, necessary book: Black Grief/White Grievance by political theorist Juliet Hooker. With unflinching clarity, Hooker explores the unequal ways grief is acknowledged, politicized, or weaponized in our culture. She invites us to reflect on who is allowed to mourn openly — and who is silenced, blamed, or pathologized in their pain.

This circle will ask us to sit with discomfort, truth, and responsibility. But also with care.

🌀 Mini Practice: Try a grief & power journaling prompt.
Ask yourself: Whose grief is made visible in the world around me? Whose grief is dismissed or ignored? What do I need — or want — from the systems I live within?

This will be a circle for deep listening and courageous reflection. Join us at: lorizaspel.com/links
