Knowledge Share Description
This seminar will give examples, primarily from the U.S., of the ways policing and militarization are used to control access to nature, further degrades our environments, and create social erosion with direct climate impacts. Beginning with the history and origins of policing in the U.S. creates context to better understand the breadth of examples that follow from around the world and across time. Learning how these frameworks show up in our communities and how to change them is the foundation of revolution. This time spent learning, discussing, asking questions, and sharing experiences will encourage you to think about what you want to stop, start, continue, and change going forward.
