Abolition Democracy: Beyond Prisons, Torture, and Empire by Angela Y. Davis

informative inspiring reflective

5.0

A must read for everyone. Everyone. Everyone. Everyone. The relevance of Davis’ book many years after its publication reveals the lack of critical thinking and discourse to develop in the post-9/11 surveillance police state. Davis has such a profound temperature gauge on the American psyche and of its imperialism through the nation’s past, present, and future. But, most importantly, Davis in her philosophy and examination deeply and relentlessly admits the humanity that binds us all beyond the fabrication of militarized borders and sense of falsely nationalized selves.
