We live surrounded by – and if you peak into international supply chains, dependent upon – violence, or at least its constant underlying threat, or at least people willing to use or threaten it for their own agendas. We cannot avoid its existence, so the least we can do is talk about it. If violence underpins the world order we seek to shift, what role might its various forms properly or inappropriately play in resistance? What is our relationship to normalized violence, either obvious or intentionally hidden? How should we respond to violence done to us? To anybody? We certainly don’t have those answers, but we also know it does us no good to avoid these questions. So next week, join us in exploring these tricky but persistent questions.
