Imagining Justice: A Fresh Look at Restorative Practices

As social creatures, we rely on social groups for our survival, not just like our mental health, but deep in the wilds, when we were more closely connected to the earth and to our environment in order to exist, to live.
Ever wondered if there’s a better way to handle justice than our current system? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Finding OK', Hecate sits down with Lily Sage to explore the concept of Restorative Justice. They discuss how the traditional punitive judicial system often falls short, especially for marginalized groups and survivors of sexual assault. Lily brings a unique perspective, sharing insights from a paper she wrote before the Me Too movement that have now become more relevant than ever.
Lily introduces listeners to Restorative Justice, explaining what it is, its potential benefits, and the challenges it faces in being adopted more widely. This episode isn’t just theoretical; it’s deeply personal. Lily recounts her own journey into understanding and advocating for Restorative Justice, highlighting both its promise and its obstacles. The conversation also touches on the broader societal issues that intersect with justice, including systemic oppression, racism, and generational trauma.
They don't shy away from tough topics like the rehabilitation of offenders and the role of media in shaping our perceptions of justice and sexual assault. Listeners will find themselves questioning the status quo and considering new possibilities for justice that prioritize healing and community support over punishment. Whether you’re a survivor seeking new perspectives or someone interested in social justice reform, this episode offers valuable insights and a hopeful vision for the future.
