Story Telling
& Organizing Project Archive
The StoryTelling & Organizing Project was created to collect and share stories about everyday people taking action to end interpersonal violence.
When we talked to people about community-based responses to violence, we began to hear stories from people usually starting with the question, “You mean something like this?” What followed were stories, lots of stories — each a unique lesson in courage, creativity and collective action. We decided to collect these stories to inform and inspire our work in community accountability and transformative justice.
