Criminalizing Survival
with Mariame KabaJoin Project Nia founder Mariame Kaba for a presentation on the "Criminalizing Survival Curricula" made in conjunction with Survived & Punished. Criminalizing Survival includes curriculum units and activities that can be used for political education focused on the intersections between racialized gender-based violence and criminalization. Some of the activities also address the problems of carceral feminisms and crimmigration. This resource is intended to help activists, advocates, organizers, and community members to learn more about the criminalization of domestic violence survivors.
