I don't see what we need to do as disconnected from how we got here, so that is partly why it's so important to consider that.
We've been talking about what's taking place on the front lines. As the witness from Peers mentioned, some of the missing voices and some of the people we aren't able to hear from, who are currently living, resisting, and surviving within these contexts, are not consumed with this debate. Just so you know, most people who are living in the reality are consumed with ensuring they have safety. They're consumed with the fact that they were harassed by the police last night. They're consumed with all the different safety mechanisms they are working on in their day-to-day lives.
It's about supporting individuals within the context in which they're living and within the spectrum of contexts, so I'm not opposed to having exit organizations. It's absolutely necessary for people to have as many choices as possible within constrained circumstances. Within that, we need to not erase or trample over individuals who are further harmed by the laws we have in place, so we need to have some forms of decriminalization to ensure that they're not over-policed and harassed in those ways.
