ABOLITION IS NOW |
LABOR RIGHTS IN THE FACE OF COVID-19 |
#FREETHEMALL |
I started contributing to Radical Justice's zines when I was quarantining with my parents and was looking for both a creative outlet and a way to stay connected with other students. Radical Justice is an abolitionist RSO organizing students around human rights issues and fostering engagement with Transformative Justice practices and is a site for the political education of UW students. These zines were a really exciting way get information out to the larger student body and to come together with people aligned in visions of justice and the ways that our campus specifically needs to move. The most recent zine, "Abolition is Now," was published in the summer of 2020 during the global rebellions against police violence. Contributing to "Abolition is Now" provided me with a way to grow in my ability to talk about abolition in an accessible way and felt so urgent and needed.
