Was/is your abusive partner a highprofile activist? Does your abusive girlfriends best friend staff the domestic violence hotline? Have you successfully kicked an abuser out of your group? Did your antipolice brutality group fear retaliation if you went to the cops about another organizers assault? Have you found solutions where accountability didnt mean isolation for either of you? Was the healing circle a bunch of bullshit? Is the local trans community so small that you dont want you or your partner to lose it? We wanted to hear about what worked and what didnt, what survivors and their supporters learned, what they wish folks had done, what they never want to have happen again. We wanted to hear about folks experiences confronting abusers, both with cops and courts and with methods outside the criminal justice system.
