Nicole on Resistance within Community
Sherrie articulated the difference between "home" and "community" where "community" is a practice, that when "community feels like home," that it is a sign of danger because people are too comfortable with the space, with their politics, with their ideas about the world. Nicole, in the clip below, gestures towards this same idea. She speculates about what might be done differently if we were able to work collaboratively on a project like FRAP in the future.
Nicole believes that it would be very powerful and transformative to have people "who were resistant" it would make more of a difference. In some ways, we were all preaching to the choir. She asks, "“What if there were people there who really, really had never even thought about this and who don’t even care and were invited to be a part of this process.”
