In this session, entitled "The Trajectory of the Violence Against Women's Movement: Where Have We Been? Where Are We Now? Where Are We Going?", Beckie, Kelly, and Lorena, used the evolution of a caterpillar to butterfly as a metaphor to facilitate a dynamic and engaging inter-generational dialogue and exercises that honor the movement's roots, examine the pivots and transformation of the present day, and explore the future of activism and organizing.
