Summary of Mariame Kaba's We Do This 'Til We Free Us
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 Prisons, policing, and the criminal punishment system in general are racist, oppressive, and ineffective. Abolition is a vision of a restructured society in a world where we have everything we need: food, shelter, education, health, art, beauty, and more things that are foundational to our personal and community safety.
#2 We must remember that we will also need to change. Our imagination of what a different world can be is limited. We are deeply entangled in the very systems we are organizing to change.
#3 We must simultaneously reduce contact between people and the criminal legal system. We must not only change how we address harm, but also how we address everything.
#4 I dread the summer because of the increased police presence and aggression. It seems like every summer, there is a new video of police brutality against Black people.
