First off, what an honor to be along for our walk in that way. And to your broader point-- I've been thinking about this so much recently, about all the ways we're trained to think of morality as being about individually good or bad people, and how that absolutely does lend to a real powerlessness. And yes, I think community spaces can be so useful to unpacking those stories and exploring structural ones!
Thanks so much, Garrett. I'm glad this is resonating with you. So much of the conversation about Epstein is also falling into the good and bad people effort to make what is structural instead about individual "choices" . . . it can be difficult to take in the scope and scale of non-individualist violence, but there are ways to do it! :-)
