Really brilliantly written and very thought-provoking. Would recommend to absolutely everyone even if you do not identify as an abolitionist.

A roadmap of daily practices to transform ourselves and the world! A reference to come back to again and again. Love all the abolitionists and world builders cited by Patrisse and interview with adrienne maree brown at the end!

I received a free ALC from Netgalley and Macmillan Audio in exchange for an honest review.
The content of this book is phenomenal and the audiobook narrator is especially engaging. I felt very inspired while listening and loved how accessible the content is for baby abolitionists. This book focuses on abolition as a whole, not exclusively police/prison abolition, which I think is a unique approach. I appreciated in particular the inclusion of disability justice ideas. Each step includes further reading and challenging reflection questions. I will be recommending this to literally everyone!
