Tabitha Williams is a harm reductionist pursuing evidence-based, non-police responses to a variety of issues including bail reform, public health, anti-racism, queer allyship, participatory budgeting, housing, and safe consumption. She firmly believes that knowledge is power so she strives to learn about systems of oppression in order to figure out ways to dismantle them. Her goal with Mothers Against Police Brutality is to support families who have had loved ones killed by police, especially by telling their accurate stories instead of those publicly released, tainted by law enforcement. She believes there is such an enormous imbalance of power that there is never a circumstance where it is justified for an officer to take a person’s life.
