MBS Food: Healing from the Red Tent with the Trinity Wombkeepers

Anita Diamant’s novel, The Red Tent, struck a chord in women worldwide, telling the story of the rape of Dinah found in Genesis from her perspective. The book brought alive the "menstrual hut" where women gathered to menstruate and give birth. Since the book, we’ve seen the creation of Red Tents around the globe. Today’s Red Tent is a sacred and safe space where women gather to connect with themselves and each other through education, ritual, ceremony, and support.
