Alexis Silvera is a traditional healer, occultist and astrologer. The belief that reconnection to one's ancestors can be a healing and revolutionary act is central to the work she does with her clients. She shares her journey of how she became a practitioner of Afro-Diasporic Shamanism and how it lead her to take up more space as a black queer woman.
