If resurrection is an ushering in of a new social order where violence, exploitation, and domination don’t have the last word and rather restoration, abundance and justice reign, what is the role of reparations as we rebuild and imagine into existence resurrection as abolition?

We will be in conversation with Richard Wallace, Robin Rue Simmons, and Lisa Sharon Harper, we will define reparations, and in particular what does reparations mean to black and brown people and our collective liberation? How does the history of systemic racism and intergenerational wounds shape our vision of reparations? Drawing on the wisdom and experience of our guests, what are concrete ways they and their communities of belonging are making reparations concrete?   You will also hear from the voices of people directly impacted by the criminal punishment system.  They will share what reparations means to them, and how their vision would change their lives and the lives of their family?
