AMC2013 SafetyTeam report-back: One more step towards building the world we want

If the AMC is an experiment in making the world we want to make happen for four days in June, how do we deal with potential violence and harm during that time? SafetyTeam is the AMC's attempt to begin to answer this question.

Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, coordinator of the AMC2013 SafetyTeam, shares her reflections below.

On Friday, we welcomed AMC participants back to the conference and to Detroit. In a wall-to-wall packed Community Arts Auditorium, we framed the local context, celebrated 15 years of the AMC, experienced powerful poetry and dance performance, and concluded with a movement-based exploration of emergence theory that started as a human wave that became a ripple, then a hustle, then a dance party.
