# An Emerging Practice Model for Anti-Oppressive Pedagogy Embracing Cultural Diversity
(**Note:** ***This is a kernel of a topic on "Creating Community Safety from Racialized Policing Using Contextual Fluidity". The sessions other than ![](session:centeringmargins) are yet to be written.***)
This topic will lay the groundwork for creating community safety using contextual fluidity[^1] amid the increasing criminalization of care, cultures of violence, and on-going genocide. It will generate discussion centering on 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] Freires underlying message of conscientization in *Pedagogy of the Oppressed* is that it is everyones responsibility to respond to the situation positively and thoughtfully.[^4]
