OUR PEOPLE
The Black Madonna Freedom School embraces the matriarchal truth that we thrive best in non-heirarchal mutuality — that we are actually and truly the sum of our parts. So, meet the BMFS Dream Team, our Founding Wisdom Council, our visiting faculty, and our Founding Members. Together, we are the Black Madonna Freedom School.
