The Radical Restorative Justice of The People’s CDC
Leah Shafer
Hobart and William Smith Colleges
Abstract
In this presentation, I situate the equity-focused work of the People’s CDC within restorative justice and world building movements. Using their “layered, collective, and equitable” social media publications as a guide, I employ recent research on collective action to analyze the ways that the People’s CDC resists the hegemonic inequities embedded in state run public health systems and corporate mass media by redeploying and rewriting the rhetorical strategies of those systems. I argue that the People’s CDC’s ethos of care and collaboration is employing restorative world building practices as a response to global crisis. As they say, “We must urgently create a new normal in which commitment to community care drives policy and behavior. This charge requires sustained and collective action.”
