Quotes by Danielle Sered (?)

“I believe when we hurt someone, we incur an obligation. Period. Nothing changes that obligation— not our own history of pain, our unhealed trauma, nothing.”

“If incarceration worked to secure safety, we would be the safest nation in all of human history.”
― Danielle Sered, Until We Reckon: Violence, Mass Incarceration, and a Road to Repair

“On the individual level, violence is driven by shame, isolation, exposure to violence, and an inability to meet one’s economic needs—factors that are also the core features of imprisonment. This means that the core national violence prevention strategy relies on a tool that has as its basis the central drivers of violence.”
― Danielle Sered, Until We Reckon: Violence, Mass Incarceration, and a Road to Repair
