last week, my friends and I watched Laverne Cox on Olay & Friends, and decided that instead of judging someone else for their romantic choices, we needed to reflect on our own. I wrote up some reflection questions for us, and we shared our experiences with each other.

tonight! I’m facilitating a discussion on unlearning adultism with the Philly Childcare Collective. the first hour is open to the public!

I’m throwing a party w one of my fav people @justmaybechris.bsky.social in a Safer Movements Collective x Chester Gifted Program collab!!!

join us Friday, August 1st for MAMAS COOKOUT 👩🏽‍🍳 there will be abolition trivia! a care corner! a kids space by the Philly Childcare Collective! prizes! dancing!

we need conflict skills, of course! and we need a different set of skills — especially community support and firmer boundaries — to respond to abuse.

we had the same conversation at the safer movements collective event earlier this month, and had just shared this reflection yesterday. many of the same skills that support us in moving through generative conflict are weaponized against us in abusive relationships.

the Safer Movements Collective has a new zine! building on many existing resources, our first cohort of Black queer + trans organizers and cultural workers from around the world set out to define conflict for ourselves.

read + listen to the zine! 👇🏽
