About this Podcast:

What does transformative justice look like and where did it come from? Join us for a journey across local communities as we explore the last 25 years of building community accountability, transformative justice and abolitionist practice. Through the Stories for Power podcast, hosted by Deana Lewis, we trace the work of some of the architects and radical organizers of this current wave of work. This podcast is part of the relaunch of STOP – the StoryTelling & Organizing Project – presented by Creative Interventions and Just Practice Collaborative. STOP collects and shares stories of everyday people, organizations and networks taking action to confront and end domestic and sexual violence through people power – not the power of the state.
