Dear Community, Last night we experienced a familiar tragedy. While the details are, at present, still unavailable, it has become clear that we have lost a member of the community and that several more have been injured.

Today at 3pm! Please come through if you can!

Tomorrow is the abolition summer school, where we'll be talking and thinking about the prison industrial complex. Readings: abolitionjournal.org/studyguide/#we… When: Aug 13, 2021 03:00 PM EST We also got a new zoom link! Register in advance for this meeting: virginiatech.zoom.us/meeting/regist…



Visualizing various forms of confinement on prisonpolicy.org/reports/pie202… is startling and convincing that abolition is the only ethical choice.
