“If it takes a village to raise a child, it certainly takes a movement to undo an occupation.”
Ruth Wilson Gilmore, Golden Gulag: Prisons, Surplus, Crisis, and Opposition in Globalizing California

“Abolition is about abolishing the conditions under which prison became the solution to problems, rather than abolishing the buildings we call prisons.”
Ruth Wilson Gilmore
