On Saturday, November 16, 2019, The Brooklyn Combine partnered with Eric Mateo, at The Brownsville Community Justice Center, BCJC, Dr. L. Toni Lewis, Khadija A. Tudor, LMT, at Life Wellness Center, and a host of others to produce a one-day event addressing the healing process in Brownsville, Brooklyn, after a recent community member was killed.
The day included music, meditation, yoga, arts & crafts, refreshments, community activism, and in-depth discussions about the healing process when faced with consistent trauma, and in particular, the loss of community members through police, gun violence. This particular incident sparked the need for a day of Healing and Justice, https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/25/nyregion/police-involved-shooting-brooklyn.html
