Roots & Remedies 2024

Cincinnati, ohio

July 12-14, 2024

Since 2008, Roots & Remedies has brought together organizers and activists using innovative strategies to connect and amplify their work on space and housing issues, access to good food, quality education, youth empowerment, and more. It has been a space for our community to reconnect, relax, heal, and celebrate the profound work that community organizers are doing across the nation to improve health, justice, and racial equity.

This convening is intentionally designed to be a liberatory space where we are free to be our full selves as we explore new places, experience great organizing, celebrate culture, and share our talents with one another. Roots & Remedies is a beautiful, love-filled retreat that is truly grounded in the communities and the future that we are building together.

Home, heart, hope

We are grateful for the opportunity to gather again to continue building a movement for justice, inclusion, and equity in our communities and the whole world.

Our Roots & Remedies 2024 theme is, “Home, Heart, Hope,” as these words represent a

combination of the rights and strengths that anchor our work as we resist injustice, fight for our collective liberation, and face the challenges and opportunities ahead.

In these difficult times, people around the world stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine; people around the world survive and resist being displaced by the effects of climate change; and people are working to prepare for the 2024 elections. Regardless of the results, our communities will continue to face systemic oppression across most facets of our lives, but the possibility of an extreme right wing authoritarian regime back in the White House is a clear and present danger for our country and the world.

We are coming together to renew our commitment to continue to organize and advocate for our communities, for our communities are our homes. To continue our fight for justice, for justice is what our hearts truly desire. And to be in each other presence, to share our stories and strengths, for remembering we are not alone gives us and those around us hope.

Join Us in Cincinnati

Participants will come together in a collective home, share what is in our hearts, and give each other hope so we may continue the work to create better futures for our communities. This year, The Praxis Project brings Roots & Remedies to Cincinnati, Ohio, a city at the heart of both urban and rural communities in the country, where activists and organizers working on various issues cross paths with one another in our struggle for survival, resistance, and liberation.
