Bio information from Freddie Blooms
Sol (they/them) identifies as a genderqueer human, brujx apprentice, and a community organizer. They love poetry, plant wisdom, stretching, their spiritual guides, their tarot cards, and their mentors. Sol believes that community is a critical medicine of life; Their heart and spirit are deeply committed to supporting the manifestation of justice, alignment, healing, and reconnection in community building.
Sol is currently in an herbal apprenticeship class for Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) with Seed, Root + Bloom. Sol is also a Community Organizer with Matahari Women Workers’ Center and Volunteer Coordinator with Feminine Empowerment Movement Slam (FEMS).
From their herbal apprenticeship at Seed, Root + Bloom, Sol learned how similar the body system is to the community system and the earth system. A return to the body is analogous to a return to community and a return to the earth. Sol envisions a world in which there is accessibility to herbalism. A world in which indigenous folks and their medicines are stewarding conversations on healing, and where Native medicines and practices are named and respected as such.
