About Making Adjustments

From the publisher's feed

We believe that true justice isn't only an idea or concept: it's a behavior. Changing behavior can take time, but small steps lead to giant justice. While our mission is to end sexual violence in society, we recognize that intersections of identities and experiences contribute to a culture of interconnected violence and oppression. Join us every month for a thoughtful dive into an element of culture that could benefit from a few healthy adjustments.
