Faith Organizers Kelley Fox and Terry Williams explore how personal and societal trauma rooted in constant anti-abortion assaults on reproductive freedom can drive unhealthy behaviors within social justice systems. Using the recent case of Francine Coeytaux as a case study, Kelley & Terry give concrete strategies for tending to your own trauma, maintaining behaviors that are in alignment with your values, and making amends when you’ve done something harmful — whether you intended to harm others or not.
