Ep 290 - One Million Experiments Part 2: The Black Trans Travel Fund with Devin Lowe

Welcome to One Million Experiments, a brand new podcast exploring how we define and create safety, wellness, and protection in a world without police and prisons. Through longform interviews with movement workers across the world who have created community-based safety projects, 1ME expands our ideas about what keeps us safe, and celebrates the work already happening to build solutions that are grounded in transformation instead of punishment.

On this episode, Dame and Daniel talk with Black Trans Travel Fund Founder & Executive Director Devin Lowe. Devin breaks down how the experiment emerged out of the needs of his loved ones, the surprising and gratifying ways that the work has expanded, and the relationship of freedom of personal movement to collective liberatory social movement.
