Today we talk (and dream a little) with members of the Coalition for Reenvisioning Our Safety.

Paul is an Assistant Professor at the University of Michigan School of Public Health and helps to organize the Michigan Chapter of Public Health Awakened. He spends his time thinking about, researching, teaching, and organizing around root causes of health inequities, including policing and immigration policies. You can find him on Twitter.

Ryan is an educator, activist, DEI consultant, artist, and community catalyst. He is a trustee for Avalon Housing, an alum of the Nonprofit Enterprise at Work's Champions for Change leadership program, and a founding member of CROS. You can find him on Twitter, Instagram, and his website.
