About this trip

Together, we will face the truth of our nation's history of racial terror and violence, self reflect on the ways each of us have upheld and perpetuated white supremacy in our lives, and embrace our ability to affect change and dismantle racism, first within ourselves, and then in our families and communities.

Our purpose is to listen to and learn from Black leadership, utilize antiracism tools, resources and yoga philosophy to strategize ways to do less harm, be better co-conspirators to BIPOC and develop ways to move forward with mindful action toward collective liberation.

Once registered, participants will receive soul assignments, which is basically pre-work (books, podcasts, documentaries, etc) to help them get started on building a solid foundation for their personal anti-racism journey.

We invite you to engage in this transformational experience as we delve into these courageous conversations with Myisha T, who will be leading the trip.


Founder of the Check Your Privilege organization and contributor and Editor of the Check Your Privilege anthology, Myisha T is a human-design generator and MBTi ENFJ with action-oriented justice in her blood. A single mom of 3 differently abled children, Myisha is also a mental health advocate and social entrepreneur. An advocate for healing and social transformation, Myisha continues to center the work of Check Your Privilege from a mental health perspective, using self-compassion practices and reflection to help white folx step back, reflect, and compassionately dismantle their relationship with power, privilege, and oppression. When she's not guiding the practice of those engaged with Check Your Privilege, Myisha lives her role as a mental health advocate to facilitate wellness workshops and peer support groups with black, brown and indgenious womxn through a restorative justice project she founded and sponsors called, Brown Sisters Speak.

Since 2018, Black woman owned and led Legacy Trips provides immersive racial and social justice oriented, spiritually based, experiences visiting historical landmarks (such as Montgomery & Selma, AL) for the purpose of doing deep, inner work in a supportive environment alongside a loving community led by BIPOC teachers where everyone seeks to educate themselves while integrating mindful action against oppressive systems and strategizing ways to affect personal and collective change with the goal of liberation for all.

This was a masterfully planned and facilitated trip. The majority of the weekend is self-guided, which is necessary, but Tina scaffolds you before each experience. She gave us general topics to discuss during informal meals, and guiding principals to keep in mind before moving through the museum and memorial, in addition to leading reflections afterwards. For me, her guidance deepened my time and made each portion of the weekend more impactful. Also, I really appreciate the thoughtfully curated pre and post work. I felt much more prepared for the trip because of it and am so grateful that there are resources to help integrate the work and continue connecting with others afterwards. Thank you so much for this opportunity!

What a transformational experience. Thank you Tina for guiding us through such a thoughtfully planned and executed Legacy Trip. The museum and memorial were eye opening and walking over the bridge in Selma crystalized for me how I can make personal changes to be a better ancestor. And I now have bigger network of women who will hold me accountable to making these changes. Words don't do it justice - THANK YOU!!

Wow, what an incredibly well organized trip! The accommodations were great, the meals were delicious, the workshops were AMAZING, and the tours of the Legacy Museum, the Memorial for Peace & Justice, and the walk across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, were all phenomenal experiences and I am forever changed!

This is my second Legacy Trip so I came to this already knowing the quality of experience that Legacy Trips provide. When I tell you that this trip blew me out of the water I am not exaggerating. I had been wanting to do plant medicine for a few years but was really concerned about the safety of the space and the care that would be provided while in the medicine. La Vida Divine is an outstanding organization with thoughtful and caring facilitators. I trusted Legacy Trips before I met La Vida Divine and feel that the relationship between Legacy Trips and La Vida Divine is a most perfect union. I highly recommend this trip if you are looking to do a plant medicine journey and are serious about being intentional and thoughtful about your experience. Love Tina, Goddess Jhoselyn and Gaddy, forever my favorites!

Tabitha, you are truly Legacy family now! It was so beautiful being on this plant medicine trip with you. I believe our paths crossed so that we could experience this kind of loving community together. Thank you for trusting me and for trusting us to walk alongside you through your journey of healing, liberation and love.
