Security Culture: Building relationships of trust and care

One way to define security culture is: developing practices with our communities so that we do not subject ourselves or each other to risks without consent. Some of these risks come from the corporate state, such as criminal charges and civil SLAPPs (strategic lawsuits against public participation). Risks can also include the ways we inadvertently get in our own way. A well-meaning comrade with internalized oppressive behaviors can disrupt a movement just as well as a plant.
