It will generate discussion centering margins and inspire those who resist being excluded, oppressed, and live under the constant threat of violence. Tatum states that a subordinate group has to focus on survival in a situation of unequal power[^2] . Borrowing from black abolition feminist scholar Andrea Ritchie, movements against police violence should promote “…nurturing values, visions, and practices”. [^3] Friere’s underlying message of conscientization in Pedagogy of the Oppressed is that it is everyone’s responsibility to respond to the situation positively and thoughtfully.[^4] + +## Texts on Contextual Fluidity: + +- Nelson, C.H, and Dennis H.
