The Irresistible Podcast presents Organizing in a Pandemic: Disability Justice Wisdom

Patty Berne recently participated in a panel with Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha and Lydia X.Z. Brown, moderated by ex-Sins intern Allegra Heath-Stout. You can listen to it now on Irresistible, a Healing Justice Podcast!

From the Irresistible website:

The COVID-19 pandemic is bringing real and significant disruptions to our lives, our communities, and our organizing.

The scale of this shift in our social fabric is new, but these are questions that disability justice organizers have been grappling with for years. How can we organize in a state of constant uncertainty and limitations on physical movement? How can we protect people with compromised immune systems as we work to build people power? How do we get the work done while leaving no one behind?

This episode shares stories and insights from disability justice organizers that all of us can learn from and apply to organizing in our current conditions. Thank you to JOIN for Justice, the Jewish Organizing Institute and Network, for organizing this call & working with us to turn the recording into a podcast episode.
