Community Guidelines & Agreements (Read First)
This community is held with intention, responsibility, and respect for lineage. By entering and participating in this space, you are agreeing to the following guidelines. These agreements exist to protect the harmony, integrity, safety, and intellectual property of the work held here. Honoring Indigenous Traditions This community honors African and Diasporic indigenous traditions, and the many ways ancestral wisdom lives through land, body, and spirit. Members are expected to engage with respect for one another’s traditions, lived experiences, and lineages. Dismissive language, comparison for superiority, or reframing indigenous traditions to fit another worldview is not aligned with this space. Harmony Over Debate This is not a debate space. Arguing, debating, or adversarial engagement disrupts the harmony we are intentionally cultivating and is not permitted. Dialogue grounded in respect is welcome; contention and argument are not. If something does not resonate, members are invited to sit with it privately or seek appropriate clarification rather than challenging the space publicly. Centering Black and Brown People This is a safe and intentional space for Black and Brown people first. The curriculum, teachings, and frameworks within this community were created specifically for Black and Brown people to reconnect with ancestry, identity, and spiritual lineage. People from other backgrounds are welcome as learners and allies, not as authorities. Participation requires humility, respect, and a willingness to learn without appropriating, reframing, or whitewashing the work to fit another narrative, even when material feels familiar within other practices. In this space, we explicitly acknowledge and honor the African indigenous roots of the knowledge shared. Confidentiality, NDA & Intellectual Property This is a confidential community space. By entering, viewing, or participating in this community, you agree that: - All teachings, frameworks, language, recordings, and materials shared here are confidential - Content may not be recorded, copied, reproduced, distributed, or shared outside this space without explicit written permission - Participation functions as agreement to a confidentiality and non-disclosure clause - Any trademarks, proprietary frameworks, or protected material disclosed here are legally protected
