Dean Spade: Group Culture around Capacity in Mutual Aid

Highlight video from the Building Capacity for Mutual Aid Groups workshop series.

Dean Spade: “A lot of mutual aid groups are struggling with capacity issues. This video from the first in our Building Capacity for #MutualAid Groups workshop is how we build cultures inside our groups to help us talk about capacity in useful ways. You can watch the rest of the video, and register for the upcoming workshops here.”

The Barnard Center for Research on Women (BCRW) engages our communities through programming, projects, and publications that advance intersectional social justice feminist analyses and generate steps toward social transformation. BCRW is a center for research under the auspices of the AAUP Principles of Academic Freedom and, thus, nothing published on this website reflects the views of Barnard College as an institution.
