Vesper Moore's post, including this article by Stefanie Lyn Kaufman-Mthimkhulu vehemently supported by community members:
' We need more peer support and community response networks. We need to put power back into the hands of the people. We need the people most impacted to not only give input but to run and be responsible for the inception of all system services. We need those who are marginalized to take the lead in each community not out of expectation or tokenization but humanization.
“Replace the cops with mental health workers!” is a really well-intentioned statement, but the current mental health system is also a white-dominated, violent, coercive, and unaccountable structure that disproportionately harms people of color.” — Morgan M. Page '
