If you were following the Transformative Justice/Restorative Justice project on Discord, we are currently meeting weekly on Zoom. You must register at https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/tjrj-study-group in order to get a personalized link, but once you have a link, you are welcome to come as often or as little as you like.

Here are some links we've been reading through:

• A Brief Description (Mia Mingus) (read twice so far) https://transformharm.org/tj_resource/transformative-justice-a-brief-description/
  • 2ndary link: https://leavingevidence.wordpress.com/2019/01/09/transformative-justice-a-brief-description/
  • other topics/homepage: https://transformharm.org/
  • about Mia Mingus: https://leavingevidence.wordpress.com/about-2/
• pod-mapping: https://www.soiltjp.org/our-work/resources/pods
• defining abolitionism: https://criticalresistance.org/mission-vision/not-so-common-language/

Our current "homework" (if you can even call it that) is to sit with the topic of discomfort and contemplate what topics might affect our ability to share space during conversations about violence, carceral systems, and alternative accountability. Those who are comfortable doing so may share some of their reflections in upcoming exercises.
