Introduction:
Welcome back to Tea for the Queen Somewhere Between Woke and Well, the podcast where we explore the intersection of social justice and wellness. I'm your host, Tiara Burns, and in today's episode, we're going to talk about building community as a pillar of mental health. We'll discuss the importance of community in social justice work, how to build community, and the benefits of being part of a supportive community.

Segment 1: The Importance of Community in Social Justice Work
Social justice work can be emotionally taxing, and having a supportive community can help us navigate the challenges we face. We'll discuss why community is important in social justice work, how it can provide a sense of belonging and support, and how it can help us sustain our activism over time.

Segment 2: How to Build Community
Building community takes intentional effort and a willingness to be vulnerable. We'll talk about some practical ways to build community, including attending events and protests, joining affinity groups, and engaging in social media activism.
