Becoming a Good Migrant:

Decolonize Your U.S. Exit Strategy

A 4-hour Pre-recorded Workshop for

Underrepresented U.S. Americans*

Workshop Recordings, Guidebook, and Signal Group — $47

Learn how to create a considerate and well-planned exit strategy in uncertain times.

Plan. Consider. Budget. Migrate.

*For BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, Women, Mixed Couples, and Allies

Let's pause together and consider.

This workshop, given in 2022, came at the request of friends and clients of mine to learn the pros and cons of migrating while addressing the real concerns about our safety in the U.S. and abroad.

Crossing borders and seeking refuge carries responsibility too. We must seek to do less harm while we seek sanctuary from harm.

This workshop is here to help you migrate with respect and consideration for the people you will make communion within new lands.

About Your Facilitator

Ixchel is a former Mestize Vice Mayor of Petaluma, California, who migrated south to Nicaragua in 2016 after the election results. Facing political oppression and an authoritarian regime, they became undocumented during pandemic lockdowns, and were unable to leave for over two years. Now re-matriating and reconnecting with their ancestral roots in Mexico, Ixchel is on the path to becoming a Mexican citizen. In this intimate workshop, they share their story and the invaluable lessons learned from their journey.

Do I Belong Here?

We are holding a brave, inclusive, private, trauma-sensitive space. You belong if you if you are JEDIs, Edgewalkers, BIPOC, Decolonizers, Anti-Racists, Culturemakers, Neuro-emergents, 2Spirits, QueerAF, Trans, Enbies, Revolutionaries, Feminists, and Dreamers. You belong if you are part of the movement to create the POST-Hegemonic Culture (liberating from the cis + heteronormative, imperialist, white supremacist, capitalist patriarchy — h/t bell hooks + Laverne Cox).

On the other side of rest is flow
