Our thinking has been limited by disconnection, sleep deprivation, and the unattainable call for perfection. The systems will never give us rest. It is something we must create for ourselves and each other. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJust as the North Star guided the enslaved on their journeys to freedom, visionary artist and founder of The Nap Ministry Tricia Hersey leads us to imagine a new world: one in which we subvert the narrative of productivity at all costs and embrace rest as a healing spiritual practice. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInspired by vintage hymnals, prayer books, and abolitionist pamphlets, \u003ci\u003eWe Will Rest! \u003c\/i\u003eis a modern sacred object, medicine for a sick and exhausted world. Weaving together meditations and poetry with storytelling and powerful art, Hersey provokes liberation through refusal and trickster rebellion in the face of capitalism and white supremacy. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is another way.
