Urban Sanctuary Urgency

Our Mission

 

The urgency to create a safe space on the 20 acres arises from the escalating psychological, economic, and physical toll that systemic oppression in the United States continues to inflict on Black, Brown, Indigenous, and allied communities seeking liberation. As structural violence intensifies through surveillance, disenfranchisement, and social control, more people are recognizing that their survival and well-being depend on disentangling from the machinery of racial capitalism and carceral governance. This land is not merely a place—it is a sanctuary in formation, offering an alternative to those who can no longer breathe within the confines of normalized injustice. We will build it.

Our vision is twofold: a self-sufficient living community for those committed to long-term regeneration, and a public-facing sanctuary that offers healing, education, and tools for resilience. The compound will prioritize security through reinforced infrastructure, surveillance deterrence, and trained community safety teams. At the same time, we will cultivate community gardens, host decolonial workshops, and provide cultural and therapeutic programming for those passing through or in need of brief respite. This dual-purpose design ensures that while some withdraw from the dominant system entirely, others can still find refuge and connection on their journey toward liberation.

This is not a retreat—it is a strategic revival. It is the groundwork for collective sovereignty. As systems around us continue to fail and fracture, this 20-acre space becomes a living manifesto: one that asserts our right to exist safely, to organize freely, and to imagine futures beyond the reach of state and societal violence. The time is now to build what we have always deserved: a place to live, thrive, and protect one another outside the logic of oppression.

Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers are the backbone of our organization. We offer a variety of opportunities for individuals and groups to get involved and make a difference in the lives of those we serve.
