The SpiritHouse Project is a national 501(c)3 non-profit organization that uses the arts, research,
education, action, and spirituality to bring diverse peoples together to work for racial, economic, and social justice, as well as for
spiritual maturity.
Incorporated in 2001, SpiritHouse is a social justice organization that brings multi-ethnic people and
intergenerational communities together in a process of community formation. Here, they develop the language, knowledge, analysis, community
spirit, hindsight, insight, and foresight, and connections to organize, educate, and lead a racial justice movement at home and throughout
the nation. In this process of community formation for racial justice, SpiritHouse uses a pedagogy of community building and reaffirmation
that draws on cultural and spiritual resources to draw out the power of communities, in order to develop concrete strategies to take their
struggle for racial justice to the media, public policy advocates, churches, youth, halls of government, interfaith communities,
institutions of higher education, and social networks. Learn more.
We are an intergenerational network of diverse people who work for racial and social justice.

Participatory Democracy - The SpiritHouse Project operates on three fundamental principles of
participatory democracy:
- Let the People Decide
- Strong Leaders Emerge Out of the Body of Strong Communities
- Authentic Struggle for Liberation is Intergenerational
Spirituality - SpiritHouse recognizes that justice is both a spiritual and social concept that
are interconnected to each other. Injustice and violence are signs of deep spiritual malformation. They spread a national cancer that eats
away at our national unity and potential. Learn more.
SpiritHouse is a frontline and consistent voice for racial justice. We have stood on the front
lines, whether working to stop racist crimes against Black people; educating our children; economically, socially, or politically advancing
our community; preserving the rights and liberties of all groups in our community; or building multicultural coalitions who work to contest
the presence of racism in their communities and in the nation. Learn more.
