Community M-Room: Prison Abolition: A Queer Imperative | Multicultural Affairs
Prison abolition, as defined by Critical Resistance, is a “broad strategy” that “means we must build models today that can represent how we want to live in the future.” The vision painted by this strategy is not only a world without prisons but a world with accountability mechanisms and transformative justice. Join us for a discussion led by the Pride Center around why Prison Abolition is a queer imperative.
