description: We Will Build a New Compass: Magic Moments of Seeding More Just Worlds is a story of breaking intergenerational cycles of violence and imagining more liberated futures.It connects the experiences of teen parenthood disability queerness and immigration to larger patterns of oppression and resistance. It also looks for possibilities beyond trauma and explores ways of developing tools for healing and creating collective strategies for structural change.At a time of seemingly endless ways for oppressive forces to regroup and reinvent We Will Build a New Compass suggests that a way forward might be less about looking for utopia or for a single solution to sweep away unjust systems and more about recognizing appreciating and harnessing moments of personal and collective transformation be it a successful strike for better working conditions a blossoming neighborhood mutual aid effort or an interpersonal conflict being handled with grace and integrity within social justice movements. The book is centered on the premise that liberation as a process is closely tied to addressing harm and its lasting consequences as much as it is about imagining creating and implementing more just systems at an individual group and societal level.
