Cultural Writing. Politics. Today, over seven million people live under the control of U.S. jail, prison, probation, or parole systems--the vast majority of them people of color and young people. The crisis shows no signs of slowing. For a decade, Critical Resistance has organized to abolish the reliance on imprisonment, policing, and surveillance. Published in honor of Critical Resistance's tenth anniversary, ABOLITION NOW! reflects the themes Dismantle, Change, and Build. It presents bold strategies to create a stronger movement of people committed to PIC abolition and build healthy communities free from surveillance, policing, and imprisonment. Contributors Include: Incite! Women of Color Against Violence, David Gilbert, Martha Escobar, Liz Samuels and David Stein, Dylan Rodriguez, and Eddy Zheng.
