In this episode of Tejana Feminist Talks, COLLEGE GRADUATE (haha) and host Leslie Lopez talks about transformative justice. She first discusses the differences between punitive, restorative, and transformative justice. Leslie then uses "Beyond Survival," a 2020 anthology edited by Ejeris Dixon and Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, to describe the TJ movement and ways to practice TJ in our lives. Below are some of the websites, organizations, and collectives she mentioned:
