Have you been a part of a group where racism, classism, transphobia,
heterosexism, misogyny, ableism and/or any other form of oppression made it
impossible for you to stay in the group, made it impossible for others to
stay in the group, caused painful and unresolved conflict or hindered the
broader work of the group towards social change? Wondering what some of
those words mean?
How can we build long-term and sustainable relationships to anchor our work
for the world we envision while getting real about how systemic oppressions
continue to damage and hinder our relationships to each other?
