One Million Experiments turns to the Twin Cities to connect with Signe Harriday of Relationships Evolving Possibilies, or REP. REP is a network of dedicated abolitionists showing up to support others in moments of crisis or urgency, with care and respect for the full dignity and autonomy of the people in crisis. They help community build pods of communal reliance, and facilitate a hotline to address the needs of community members in times of crisis. We talk with Signe about how relationships are the building blocks of liberation work, how having a different number to call shifts individual and communal consciousness, and how Black liberation and indigenous sovereignty are at the center of the multi-century struggle of which we are all a part.
