This was an okay intro to Abolition feminism but the language was very dense, dry, and the text felt very academic. Despite those complaints, I still learned a fair amount. Thought, I still have basic questions like, "if we get of prisons, what do we do with the repeat rapists and murderess? The repeat violent offenders?" At one point the text even says something like, hardcore abolitionist are always criticized and asked what should be done with police officers who are repeat offenders and there was no answer, so like? What do we do with them? 


Overall I liked what I read but I still have that one burning question left, I didn't get an answer that satisfied me unfortunately. 

Overall I'm giving this 4 stars out of 5
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I listened to this for free on the library app libbyapp.com

It’s excellent information and feels like an opportunity to bring many small groups together for a much bigger fight. I learned a lot and was reminded of a lot I’ve learned previously. It’s pretty short and general and accessible for most interested in abolition and changing the world.
