Elements of Mutual Aid: Experiments Toward Liberation (trailer)

A compilation of footage from the upcoming, independent docuseries "The Elements of Mutual Aid." Spanning North America and including over 60 voices from the frontlines, this project explores the origins, structures, healing ways, and logistics of grassroots mutual aid toward abolition.

Each hour-long chapter tackles a unique subject and is coupled with one of the four natural elements as a thematic guide. Coming summer of 2025.

The film needs your support to be completed! Learn more and help us finish this project at: theelementsofmutualaid.com/support
