Here's where you can read an excerpt of cara Page and Erica Woodlands book Healing Justice Lineages:


"Seeking care from health and mental health providers, who are mandated reporters, can lead to surveillance and family disruption as a result of child protective services. We know the state will not save us. So we rely on each other—an interdependent ecosystem of care created and sustained by BIPOC, Queer, Trans, sick, disabled, undocumented, and poor folks, sex workers, and drug users showing up for each other. We must remember, because it is part of the colonialist project not to, that we have so much to draw from as we imagine care and safety without policing and surveillance. We need long-term infrastructure rooted in healing justice made of the material, relational, and spiritual systems and networks to weave an ecosystem of care based in abolition."
