challenging hopeful informative medium-paced

5.0

Through a series of essays written over the past several years, We Do This Til We Free Us discusses the need for abolition & how we can expand our imaginations & community to work towards it. This includes discussion of a variety of incidences to hilight the violence inherent in the prison industrial complex, how we can work for people now, & how we might create a better future to contend with these issues.  

This addresses many questions that people have about abolition & goes further, discussing the difference between punishment & accountability, expanding on the possibilities & the necessity of a future without the PIC. If you're unsure of abolition, this is a great starting point. & if you're already invested in abolition this is an incredible read.
