SynopsisWhat happens when a collection of artists, musicians, and radical activists imagine self defense as a revolutionary tool for social justice? What happens when this group, working for social change, holds a variety of collective visions of what safety and security mean that embody the complexity of how privilege and oppression operate? What happens when someone envisions boundary setting, self care and self defense that not only keep individuals safe, but also help energize progressive social movements making them more vibrant and resilient? For the past twenty years, Cristien Storm has grappled with these questions as a self defense instructor, a writer, musician, therapist, activist, survivor, partner, friend and community member. In 1993 an organization called Home Alive was founded in response to the brutal rape and murder of Mia Zapata in Seattle, Washington. As one of the founders of Home Alive, Cristien Storm developed self defense programs that recognized the link between the concepts of self defense and social change. Over the past two decades Cristien has continued to develop self defense, self care, and boundary setting programs and curricula that address the broad scope of how violence, trauma, abuse, and secondary trauma inform the structures of our relationships, our organizations, and our progressive movements. Most boundary setting curricula focuses on the self as an individual. Living In Liberation challenges those practicing boundary setting and self care to see themselves not simply as individuals but also as local, national, and global community members. Living In liberation argues that responses to violence can and should embody boundary setting, self care, and self defense skills that interrupt victim-blaming, fear-based approaches and locate healing within the social context of community. This groundbreaking book, based on over two decades of developing and teaching boundary setting curricula, roots boundary setting and self care in a larger vision of happier, healthier, safer communities while holding on to the complexities of individual safety and social justice.
