Cop city opened in may. Why? One of the best things the Scenes blog did was the discussion of strategy and tips so people could learn even if they werent in an org or part of the scene in ATL how to struggle. If were gonna help make that possible we need to discuss losses and defeats as well. If you were part of Stop Cop City and have thoughts on why the coalition failed, please share them with us. Liberal collaboration? Not enough insurrection? Court cases sucked all the energy away? Hierarchies in the movement? Something else? Please give your insites. There are countless struggles around the world that could learn from you if your open, honest the way some people have been about the things that came before this. It would be nice to be wrong but USA social activists seem to be in perpetual denial about how and why they fail and breaking that denial is a first step towards doing things better, different. Please give your contributions! Dont wait for next time, now is the only time.
