We believe that this approach alienates people who are young, of color, queer, incarcerated, poor and/or have disabilities. As marginalized peoples, our own strategy for undermining rape culture cannot be one that reinforces the prison industrial complex — a system that targets us and only creates more violence and harassment for our communities. For this reason, CARA works to create community-based systems of accountability and support in order to build healthy relationships and communities free of both interpersonal violence and state violence.<BR/><BR/>In 2006, CARA wrote "Taking Risks: Implementing Grassroots Community Accountability Strategies," a paper written collectively by women of color about community accountability as a strategy to addressing sexual and domestic violence without the criminal justice system. It is published in Color of Violence: The INCITE! Anthology.

Let me know if you'd be interested.<BR/><BR/>Last night as we were writing letters I felt the importance of this issue really shine through. I didn't think I would be that moved to write my own personal letters, but I feel like it was a great thing to do. I hope all of you will write some letters these coming weeks, too.KelseyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06251342538306225357noreply@blogger.com
