We Do This 'Til We Free Us (Paperback, 2021, Haymarket Books) 5 stars

A reflection on prison industrial complex abolition and a vision for collective liberation from organizer …

unflinchingly truthful and kind

5 stars

As a white person learning about abolitionist thought and finding ways that I can, with chronic illnesses, be part of this movement, reading this book (and listening, I read part of it via audiobook) both challenged and encouraged me. There is something to be said about firmness, unflinching truthfulness, and boundaries: they are kindness like no other. I will read this book again.
