In the wake of a pivotal election, the Austin Justice Coalition (AJC) is hosting a transformative event titled “Where Do We Go From Here?” aimed at fostering a critical assessment of the current state of justice, equity, and accountability in our systems.
Scheduled for Thursday, November 21, 2024, at the Cherrywood Center, this community conversation intends to galvanize collective action amidst the unsettling realities revealed by the electoral process.
As the community reflects on the recent election outcomes, the event seeks to confront an uncomfortable truth: the systemic barriers that have historically obstructed justice and equity have often persisted unchallenged. “Where Do We Go From Here?” serves as a clarion call for community members, activists, and organizers to unite in envisioning a path forward—one that is firmly rooted in radical hope and an unwavering commitment to love and justice.
Chas Moore, the founder of Austin Justice Coalition, underscores the significance of this dialogue. “This isn’t just about politics,” he asserts. “It’s about naming the truth—that these systems weren’t built for us—and asking ourselves what we’re prepared to do about it. This is about community power and redefining what real change looks like.” Moore’s words emphasize the need for a radical rethinking of our approaches to societal challenges, advocating for genuine engagement and community empowerment.
The gathering invites participants to engage in introspective discussions that go beyond mere commentary on the status quo. With themes centered on accountability and resilience, the event aims to inspire actionable steps towards building a more just society. As community members share their visions, they will explore how to collectively dismantle the barriers that perpetuate inequality, using unified action as a driving force for change.
The path forward won’t be easy, but it is possible with unwavering hope and a radical commitment to one another.
AJC encourages individuals who are disenchanted with conventional methods and are eager to delve into innovative, collective solutions to participate in this important conversation. “The path forward won’t be easy, but it is possible with unwavering hope and a radical commitment to one another,” emphasizes the organization.
