Hello Global Family

Are you interested in being a part of the 2nd cohort of The Black Freedom Colony taking place July 2023? Do you need a break from American life? Do you want to re-imagine what community could look like for you and your family?


The Black Freedom Colony is a collective of African American people, choosing to live outside the United States, in a temporary expatriation, in community of other Black people and families, in an effort to rebuild our village in pursuit of liberation. The ultimate goal is to create an emotional safe space, to learn, unlearn, heal and re-build our futures together.


The Black Freedom Colony began in Tulum, Mexico as a temporary relocation and will continue in Marrakesh, Morocco for a more permanent yearly home base. As we move forward with the Black Freedom Colony all the families commit to a stay at the Mwasi Healing and Restoration Center for a period of 1 month during July within our (3) 4 bedroom villa space. It is a moment to slow down, without distractions and grow closer to your family, your fellow participants and yourself within a community of support. Therapy, healing workshops, farming, cooking, exploring and excursions are programmed over the journey. Together we relearn how community can positively function within our own values and principles.

What is offered to the community?

Group Therapy
Group is mandatory for every member that joins the Black Freedom Colony once per week. The groups will be split by age and gender.
Group Intuitive Healing Sessions
Our goal is to grow as a community and support each other on our individual journeys. These sessions will explore many topics and aims to give us skills to assess, heal and communicate about our collective and personal challenges.

Individual Sessions
While the group sessions come free of charge to BFC, individual therapy and intuitive healing sessions will be made available at reduced rates.
