"There is no such thing as making someone accountable. Instead, there is creating a culture of accountability, holding space for people to practice accountability and transforming the incentives that currently discourage accountability. Punishment creeps into and defines every governing institution — government assistance, immigration, education, social work, health care, and more  — thus drawing more people into the prison, and extending the captivity of the prison into more people’s lives. Safety comes from strong community ties and relationships, having basic needs met, and creating a culture of accountability. We must grapple with the difference between security and safety".
