We talk about the need for community a lot in this work, and the importance of it cannot be minimized. The way that we have been conditioned is that the group mentality is the one that's needed, however, groups lean into the requirement of thinking, acting, and believing in the exact same way, as opposed to communities which allow for individuals with the same goal in mind to collaborate in ways that bring different thoughts and learning to the front as part of creating effective change.

In this episode, we will further discuss the difference in the two, as well as how punitive justice relates to groups, while transformative justice relates to communities.
