As the effects of aggressive policing and mass incarceration harm historically marginalized communities and tear families apart, how do we define safety? In a time when the most powerful institutions in the United States are embracing the repressive and racist systems that keep many communities struggling and in fear, we need to reimagine what safety means. Community leader and lawyer Zach Norris lays out a radical way to shift the conversation about public safety away from fear and punishment and toward growth and support systems for our families and communities.

Please read this book! It's a roadmap for harmony.
Revisado: 09-08-20
The fractures that have spread out across nearly every aspect of society in the United States have resulted in wide-eyed paralysis among many well-meaning white people like myself. Speaking as a white person, I see the injustice of systemic racism, I want to be free from my privileged status, I want a level playing field, and I want the joy of loving connections with humanity. But what can I do, realistically?
Zach Norris pulls together ideas that have, in some cases, been around for centuries, and weaves them together into the vision of a culture of caring that we can set into motion ourselves.
It all begins with connecting more. Recognize disconnection and begin fostering healthy human connections all around you. And read the book. :-) There's a lot more there. You can do this.
