Importance of Boundaries in Relationships and Activism

Maintaining boundaries is crucial to relationships and activism. These boundaries define who belongs to a group and who is an outsider. Boundaries create a sense of belonging and safety, signaling when incursions occur. In contrast, walls hinder communication and fresh perspectives, leading to isolation and stagnant solutions.
