The S/HEroes Path & Journey: With Sobonfu Some’

Sobonfu Some’, Keeper of The Rituals, Author, Teacher and More. TOPIC: Walking For Water.  "My work is really a journey in self discovery and in building community through rituals," says Sobonfu. Sobonfu has written two books, “The Spirit of Intimacy" (William Morrow) and "Welcoming Spirit Home" (New World Library), her newest offering which draws on rituals and practices involving community, birth miscarriage and children. Filled with grace and eloquence, Sobonfu possesses a charm and modesty that enables her to touch her audience deeply. Her message about the importance of spirit, community and ritual in our lives rings with an intuitive power and truth that Alice Walker has said "can help us put together so many things that our modern western world has broken." Join us as Sobonfu talks about Walking for Water, an upcoming event in the Washington, Metropolitan Area in partnership with Wisdom Spring, Inc. Wisdom Spring aims to implement new ideas, to support the dreams of young people and to help form healthy communities around the world.
