Langston Kahn, author of "Deep Liberation," explores how reconnecting with the earth, our ancestors, and indigenous wisdom can help us move beyond the modern myth of separation. Drawing from his experiences as a teacher, practitioner, and participant in the Black farming movement, he discusses how cultivating deeper relationships with land, food, and community can help us become the humans our future needs. This wide-ranging conversation covers spiritual practice, energy body work, ancestral healing, and creating regenerative relationships with the earth through farming and food systems.
