Brûler / Bâtir

Brûler / Bâtir

Brûler/Bâtir is a podcast about reimagining collective safety. Brûler… because the police perpetuate violence and are a failed approach to safety. Bâtir… because we can invest in, and amplify, systems of care, justice, and safety without policing. Every month, we talk to people in Tiohtià:ke/Montreal that are working to build these systems, and hear about how the police get in the way. Brûler/Bâtir is an initiative of the Defund La Police Coalition. *** Brûler/Bâtir est un podcast pour réimaginer notre sécurité commune. Brûler… parce que la police perpétue un cycle de violences sans assurer notre sécurité. Bâtir… parce qu'on peut développer des systèmes de soins, justice, et sécurité sans la police. Tous les mois, on discute avec des personnes qui mettent en place ces systèmes à Tiohtià:ke/Montréal, et on apprend comment la police entrave leurs efforts. Brûler/Bâtir est une initiative de la Coalition Defund La Police.
