In this episode we speak with Tinisch Hollins, Executive Director for Californians for Safety and Justice, Vice Chair of the San Francisco African American Reparations Advisory Committee, and an all around believer of getting into good trouble.
Sexual Violence doesn’t happen in a vacuum, and to prevent it, we have to understand how violence in our communities, and by extension the punishment and justice system, are all related. In addition, the needs and wants of survivors are rarely considered in these debates and discussions of reforming the criminal justice system. So in this episode, we talk about how individual acts of violence harm not only the targets of violence, but the broader community, and how the rights and needs of survivors of trauma should be centered when thinking about alternatives to incarceration.
