Inherent in this is a refusal to examine power and our relationship with it.

Shared governance should not be about solidification of powers at the top for the two main parties, but a governance system that is inclusive and focused on the development of all of our people.

The powerful will always wield their power against those with less and it is in this understanding that we must move away from the idea of individual group power.

We must not only challenge the power systems that oppress us, but the power relations inherent in how we deal with each other because oppressive systems ultimately rely and thrive on our divisions.

So when we challenge power systems and hierarchies we should be careful not to replicate them and seek to ensure that the poorest and most marginalized groups are not further put at a disadvantage.
