SALT (Solidarity, Action, (Un)Learning & Transformation) is an experimental, translocal study kitchen. Through somatic practices, collective cooking, critical conversations, and shared reading, we gather around metaphorical and literal kitchen tables to ferment thought, nourish resistance, and practice embodied transformation.
Winter Course: Radical Rest, Dreaming Ancestral Futures
January 5 — March 16
Winter is the season of rest — when life slows and retreats underground to regenerate. Beneath the still surface, the soil is alive with quiet transformation: becoming nutritious, roots reaching down, mycelium weaving unseen connections, seeds holding new life.
In this season, we turn to soil as teacher, learning how radical rest nourishes the cycles that sustain life. Through storytelling, dreamwork, and speculative fiction, we attend to the soil of imagination — composting grief into nourishment, and listening for ancestral futures already germinating beneath our feet.
Through tea ceremonies, we practice the art of steeping — slowing down long enough to listen. As we brew tea for ourselves, we also offer compost tea to the soil and plants, nourishing the more-than-human world. Rest becomes an act of reciprocity and resistance: a refusal of the speed and scarcity that keep us depleted. We rest not to resume productivity, but to re-root in solidarity, attunement, and care — so that, when spring comes, we may rise more resourced, alive, and ready to take action.
