Nadharia Yetu ya Uponyaji
me too. International believes that healing is an action word. It does not speak to a plateau point but rather an ongoing process grounding and reconnecting to one’s body, one’s sense of self power; one’s relationship to others and reconnecting with one’s past and future. Thus, healing is intentional, iterative, and intergenerational. Our theory of healing centers growth, post-trauma and the choice to heal.
Healing is a choice. That choice is activated when we say yes to ourselves. Healing is happening right now. The fact that you are here. You are with us. For survivors, healing is the way we give ourselves permission to begin anew. For some survivors, healing is already happening. You have chosen to take intentional steps to heal on purpose.
For others, the choice to heal has felt more elusive because the ‘what’ and ‘how’ of healing are unclear. Our healing starts with us but it does not end there. Survivors heal most effectively with others. When we prioritize our needs and our healing, we make space for us to show up and heal in community. Survivors survive with one another not alone.
Empathy is the vehicle that allows survivors to heal in community. Starting with empathy for oneself and one’s own story, empathy can then be offered to other survivors. The personal journey of healing is a gift to one’s self that takes courage and community. Empathy acts as a means of connecting us to the stories, feelings and experiences of fellow survivors.
Empathy is the tool that empowers and reminds survivors that they are not alone in this healing journey. It is the capacity to see ourselves in another. It is the invitation to share ourselves with someone who knows and understands our story. We survive with you, not separate from you.
We choose to heal in order to reclaim our power – individually and collectively – and as an act of resistance to state violence and patriarchy. The me too. International framework posits that courageous individuals make courageous communities. We apply that same understanding to healing – healed people build healed communities.
Healed communities are better positioned to resist and usher in the radical change necessary to end sexual violence. There is power in our individual healing and that power can be catalyzed to activate community healing. Whether or not you identify as a survivor, there is room for you here as someone who has been impacted by sexual violence.
