Self Care is a Revolutionary Act
Channel: BarCamp Philly
Date: 2020-12-23

Fun fact - systems of oppression (and the people that drive them) want you to be tired and disengaged. We've been taught that working non-stop and sacrificing our free time is the way to achieve worth and success, but in reality, we're sicker, sadder, and poorer than ever.

It's time to reclaim our downtime and take better care of ourselves, so we can be alert and take a more active role in dismantling systems of oppression and revitalizing our democracy. We'll talk about the ways we can promote self-care in our own lives, and how we can spread the self-care revolution into our jobs, our relationships, and the larger world.
