Beyond Survival: Strategies and Stories from the Transformative Justice Movement by Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, Ejeris Dixon

challenging emotional informative reflective medium-paced

I'm so glad to have read this book; it really enriched my knowledge on transformative justice and community accountability, and I learned a lot that I can apply to my own relationships and politics as well. I would highly recommend this book!
