“I cherish the ways we have shown up for each other, and honor the ways we've failed and made mistakes. Our stories are sacred.”
Ejeris Dixon, Beyond Survival: Strategies and Stories from the Transformative Justice Movement

“When we define ourselves, the result is complexity. We are none of us one thing, neither good nor bad. We are complex surviving organisms. We do appalling things to each other, rooted in trauma. We survive, we learn.”
Ejeris Dixon, Beyond Survival: Strategies and Stories from the Transformative Justice Movement

“Through talking with my friend I began to think about the intensity of the rage TJ practitioners hold when the process doesn't go exactly how a survivor expects. And the anger and hatred is not just directed at TJ practitioners, but at TJ as a practice itself. There's a piece of capitalism in it. It feels like a terrible purchase. "I purchased a process, and you were supposed to give me salvation. This is not salvation. I hate you and I curse you and all of your generations." I'm not blaming survivors or support teams at all. It's just that we can't return people to their lives before trauma, or before violence, and that realization can feel devastating.”
