- **Event Description**: Three days. One transformative arc. Come chase freedom with us.About this EventJoin us for The People's Conference III - a three day journey of healing, liberation, and joy, where emerging voices and seasoned practitioners come together to reimagine justice in our schools and communities. Rooted in the philosophy of restorative justice, we're creating a space where students share the stage with educators, families lead alongside organizers, and your lived experience holds as much weight as any credential. We're building a movement on a simple truth: those most impacted by systemic inequities must lead the way forward. Past gatherings have sparked lasting partnerships, influenced policy changes, and launched new leaders - because when you center the voices of those who navigate these systems daily, transformation becomes inevitable. This is a conference that truly feels for  the people, where authentic, community-led solutions create real impact.Conference Overview?: 05:00 PM - 07:30 PMFriday, March 20: Inner FreedomInfo: Begin with personal healing.

Inspired by the spirit of Lauryn Hill’s “I Get Out” and “Freedom Time,” this workshop invites participants to step out of boxes – expectations, roles, inherited expectations and internal narratives – and reconnect with a more spacious way of being.
Through guided somatic release and movement, reflective journaling, a freedom-centered meditation, and a restorative sound bath, participants are supported in liberating the mind and softening the body. The experience honors freedom as both a feeling and a practice – one that lives in breath, movement, stillness, and sound. 
This workshop offers a collective pause to arrive fully, release accumulated tension, and begin again with intention. Participants will leave grounded, open, and connected.?: 10:30 AM - 12:00 PMFuture-Builders Exist: A Fireside Chat About Organizers Doing Movement WorkHost: Nzingha HookerInfo: Join Law for Black Lives Membership Director Nzingha Hooker and special guests for a conversation about organizations across the nation and the work they are currently doing for freedom.?: 01:00 PM - 02:30 PMLooking at the Mirror: Beliefs, Practices, &amp; Structures that Continue the STPPHost: Anjole WrightInfo: Restorative justice practitioner Anjole Wright recounts the most startling structural &amp; ideological similarities she observed between state-run schools and juvenile detention centers.

Skye will bring awareness to the Afro-Indigenous history of restorative justice and how to unpack our own bias, privilege, and power to be game changers and relational activists and healers. This engaging workshop will bring perspective for creating authentic RJ communities centered on relationships, youth empowerment, and social justice advocacy. Restorative Justice in Education has the potential to change the culture in order to change the game.
