this is a reread from 2021, originally an blog post / stream of consciousness by adrienne maree brown amended and extended into a collection of essays regarding “call-outs” and online calls for “accountability” that end up replicating punitive behavior.
adrienne invites us to pause our familiar inclinations of haste, and invite discernment, grace, understanding and into how we treat interpersonal conflict and correction in social movements
short reading but packed with helpful tools for deep internal analysis
good read :)

I really loved this, not just for the content but for the thoughtful consideration on how we communicate and process emotions, and on how /important/ it is that we recognize that people change and grow over time. It’s such a simple idea but put into the context of social movements and amb’s personal experience was just *chefs kiss*

This little book is packed with hard-won wisdom. The clear and powerful outlining of what transformative justice can look like in action is supporting my organization to engage in conflict more effectively, allowing transformation to happen. Very thankful we purchased this! Highly recommended for nonprofits, social justice organizers, activists, and really anyone who wants to understand how to have conflict that leads to real change rather than disconnection.
