Grief is not a problem to be solved. It is a sacred passage that asks not for resolution but for presence, courage, and a willingness to be transformed by what has been loved and lost.Re-Membering Ourselves invites readers into a different relationship with grief--not the managed, staged, or hurried grief demanded by dominant culture but grief as spiritual practice, as a biopsychosocial and neurospiritual process, as a doorway into deeper wholeness and becoming. This work offers a radical, liberation-focused alternative: What if people stopped treating grief as an enemy to be defeated and learned instead to BeFriend it? Drawing on womanist theology, African diasporic wisdom, process thought, and somatic healing, it offers a framework for BeFriending what is most feared: the full weight of loss.Written for individuals, caregivers, clergy, and communities, this book tenderly and unflinchingly holds space for grief in all its forms--death, displacement, disenfranchisement, and the slow and swallowed losses that rarely get named. Whether navigating personal rupture or systemic injustice, readers are guided to gather their scattered pieces and reclaim the holy, embodied work of healing together. Here, grief is not the end of the story. It is where Re-Membering begins. 6
