Scenario

When organizers disagree on healing victims versus transforming perpetrators

My co-organizer and I are planning a community response to recent hate crimes and they want to focus on healing the targeted community while I want to focus on confronting the perpetrators and changing their behavior. We both care about Ubuntu justice but our different approaches are creating tension when we need to be presenting a united front.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are trying to design a community response that honors both healing harm and preventing future harm but struggling to integrate their different focal points.
