"Today we are faced with a challenge that calls for
a shift in our thinking...
We are called to assist the Earth to heal her wounds,
and in the process to heal our own."
-- Wangari Maathal of Kenya, Nobel Prize Winner
"This work refuses to allow the mystery of human behavior to be reduced
to a laundry list of words like guilt, blame, shame -- the distracted theme parks
of the slavery conversation. There is a great mystery that Healing History Workshop invites us to see. We are the gold of that alchemy, of that crucible of suffering."
- Diane Gallo, NY
"Your class was truly magical. Your teaching presence is amazing: very honest, courageous and respectful. You've tread in places that have been ignored
for far too long...I loved looking into the eyes of the enslaved Ancestors
on the walls and connecting with them through writing.
I felt that by listening to them that in some way,
I was helping them and us all to heal."
-- Stacey Morris, NY
"Oh, the joy of becoming fully human again!"
- Robin Alpern, NY
"Stephanie Alston-Nero is setting a new paradigm for addressing historical pain through this loving and safe method of healing ourselves, our ancestors, our American history."
- Constance Macy, NC
"I am a Jewish woman who has long been trying to unite practices of peace with an understanding of the holocaust. In your workshop, I found an opening that allowed me to reach a place of forgiveness previously inaccessible. You have helped me to reach back in history in a way I had not believed possible and see my ancestors in a way that restores their wholeness."
- Annie Stein
"I have participated in diversity training of various kinds. None of my prior training touched the power and authenticity of Ms. Alston-Nero's workshop. Her work holds hope for a reconciliation process that must take place if we are to truly heal our country."
- Leslie B. Neustadt, Esq.,
Former Regional Director
Anti-Defamation League of Upstate New York
"The grace and generosity of the work is immense."
-- Judith Prest, NY
"Stephanie is teaching about the enduring nature of the soul's journey. She leads us back again and again to sacred space and provides a brilliant framework to keep our courage in the face of the brutality of the past. To remain ignorant is its own brutality."
-- Suzanne Lumsden, NY
"More of this work is needed for the healing and reconciliation that in most cases has not taken place here in America. Ms. Alston-Nero has captured the essense of what is missing in the healing of our common history. This work is wonderful and perfect!"
- Renee Moore,
Saratoga Springs, NY
"To this white American woman with slaveholding ancestors, I have only known the unrest of inner outrage at my ancestors. 'How could you do this!' I am finally able to lance my ancestral wounds and listen for their voices, not with a heart of stone, but with a heart wading in the sacred waters of life itself. I want to heal the wrong they've done starting today and throughout eternity."
-- Natasha Vaughan, NY
"I am no longer angry about slavery -- righteously horrified -- yes, but not angry. I am filled with the reality that healing is possible for my ancestors, my children, and myself. I am certain that we can love again."
-- Rodlyn H. Douglas, NY
