Thomas Ward Frampton published a really interesting #essay on #abolition. Specifically focusing on “the dangerous few.” This is a common debate between abolitionists and skeptics about how to handle the worst and most dangerous among us.

We heard about this #copaganda project from #LeeCamp a while back and were horrified, tooting about it at the time… and we rarely toot about internal #USA affairs.
It was the fascistic conflence of #BigConstruction, the questionable policing and downright disgusting #slaveLabour (ahem- #prisonSystem), and our distaste for #Hollywood propaganda that compelled us to toot.
As Lee Camp would say, "Keep fighting"!

The roots of #abolition are deep. The policing/incarceration systems are symptoms of the ailment. We need to reimagine a society that functions without the need for the system. Then abolition becomes a practical possibility.
Found in Derecka Purnell’s book “Becoming Abolitionists: Police, Protests, and the Pursuit of Freedom.”

When abolitionists talk about abolition, the response is typically vilification of anyone incarcerated, using public safety as an absolute. This point of view supports a profitable system of oppression. Incarcerated people aren’t monsters. Many are locked up wrongfully/illegally. The Prison Journalism Project recognizes them as humans. https://prisonjournalismproject.org/
