Aaron Goggans and I talk about what happens when movements start running on empty—how trauma, burnout, and dysregulation can shape our organizing, and what it takes to sustain ourselves and each other in a moment of crisis and emergency. I found this conversation so helpful, and I hope you will too.
Burnout Is Not Inevitable: Building Movements That Can Hold Us
“Care really should be at the center of our strategy, of our analysis, and of our practice,” says Aaron Goggans.

Another excerpt from Read This When Things Fall Apart: Letters to Activists in Crisis. Red Schulte’s letter speaks to those organizing outside the law—a place more people of conscience will find themselves as authoritarianism tightens its grip.
When Everything Is Criminalized, We Must Unlearn the Language of “Innocence”
No one should be caged, tortured, detained, or deported by the state — all carceral violence is done wrongfully.
