In late March we gathered to celebrate one year of Beyond Survival and reflect on Transformative Justice movements, what's changed, and what hasn't in the past year. In case you weren't able to make it, you can catch it here: m.youtube.com/watch?v=Yq3hvQ…
So amazing that Genara+ion @generationonmax highlighted Beyond Survival during it's mid-season finale. Grateful to see Beyond Survival being used in the way it's intended to accompany people in difficult journeys and decisions.
We know exactly what killed George Floyd. It’s the systems that have been created through the parasitic relationship between policing, the drug war and racism. These systems empower officers like Derek Chauvin to operate with impunity. #DrugsAreNoExcuse #GeorgeFloyd

The ridiculous level of urgency that organizations now have about doing antiracism and equity work when we’ve been saying all along that the work must be done and requires long-term commitment.

We love this!
Our librarian Amy recommended @BeyondSurvival4 by @thellpsx & @ejeris for USF News' piece on books of hope, comfort and escape - find out more: ow.ly/Pdex50AMUTE #USFCA
Sharing a potentially useful resource for survivors - this is a chart for mapping justice wants, needs and boundaries and thinking through accountability next steps. Thanks to @MollyRoseBell for pointing me towards this @BeyondSurvival4 (p. 105) resource.
Thanks!!
Looking at various ideas around how society could be more equitable. This is about transformative justice and community safety. We've spent time thinking about classroom environment. What about our streets? #MScTLT @BeyondSurvival4

Really enjoyed conversations with Kiyomi Fujikawa, @mimikim, and @APIChayaSEA about what's on the horizon and how to get there without getting co-opted (again). (4)
I also look ahead at how we 'scale out' rather than scale up to meet growing demand for abolitionist alternatives in this time of defunding. (3)
I wrote a thing! Based on my research and practice in transformative justice. "As calls for abolition grow louder, the queer and women of color-led movement for transformative justice offers a glimpse of a future beyond policing." (1) roarmag.org/essays/transfo…
Folks need to be wary of blaming US COVID-19 surges on unvaccinated people. The overconfidence of vaccinated people (of whom I am one) bolstered by sloppy messaging from government and the CDC over the last year-plus are also major contributors to this.
the government is not coming, they never pretended they were. ableds want to stay in a place of denial and blame. no, personal responsibility, like the kind asked of disabled people throughout this pandemic won’t keep us alive. community responsibility might
i agree that getting COVID isn’t a moral failing—holding a big ass party while cases rise, however, definitely is and that to me is the difference between personal responsibility and community responsibility
The state will never be a tool for liberation. & though the reminder hurts sometimes, we must keep rising & demanding a world which honors the living. Abolition now.
@BeyondSurvival4 edited by @ejeris and @thellpsx is just unbelievably informative and moving and nuanced. Stories from the transformative justice movement are so fucking important.
Saturn Days are my new politic reading day 🪐 maybe this will keep my ass accountable for finishing them lmao Today I’m gonna be riffing between these two already incredible works, @BeyondSurvival4 co-edited by @ejeris and Belly of the Beast by @DaShaunLH 📚

@lilririah Ejeris Dixon's article: truthout.org/articles/build… is really good, their section "Spending Less Time Judging Survivors" interrogates the thing of yelling at BIPOC people for calling law enforcement when there is not a better option. it's also in @BeyondSurvival4
