The Real Work, EP 4: Living Accountably
As the cohort continued, we learned that building the capacity to practice transformative justice takes immense and consistent personal work. We’re talking the basics of being human, like self reflection, and how to communicate.These personal inquiries into how we live our values, and how we respond to our inevitable mistakes, were like portals into the heart of TJ. Into what it would take to support ourselves and others in living accountably every day for everything we do, and fail to do.Episode transcript: bit.ly/TheRealWork-Episode-4Sogorea Te’ Land Trust: sogoreate-landtrust.org
