What is safety? How do our histories and experiences inform when and how we feel safe? What are the systems in place that are meant to keep us safe, and how do they fail us? In this session we’ll read from authors such as Joy Harjo and Roxane Gay, use writing prompts to explore our personal relationship to safety, and look at tools to help strengthen our networks to promote personal and community safety. The session is led by Josina Manu Maltzman, author of “Ride Safe,” and a core member of Relationships Evolving Possibilities (REP), a community safety project in the Twin Cities.
