Remember this: we are working to build a new world where every young person has a chance to thrive. This new world is invested in care, rather than control.

Our second podcast episode dropped on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Music! We're focusing on restorative justice and the roots of the systematic oppression we see in the "justice system." What does community-led care, healing, and accountability look like? linktr.ee/carenotcontrol…

Assata Shakur joins the ancestors a free woman. She did not die bound by the carceral system and she did not pass away living in a land that never respected or accepted her. Assata taught us that liberation can not be bargained for, it must be taken. Rest Free, Assata.
