This poem by Audre Lorde, excerpted from The Black Unicorn, is often quoted in Transformative Justice anthologies and spaces of practice. A sign of the importance of language in the invention of alternative futures to those that are perpetuated by the punitive-carceral cycle of violence. An insistance in thinking, with survivors, the power and strength they/we developed.
