I’m seeing a pattern in replies to this so here’s the list where I began my education on abolition: https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/list/share/97322388/1185739397
Do be cautious & implement your own research into every book before you read it. This is just ONE list. I recommend you broaden your research beyond this.

Abolition education doesn’t end after you read a certain # of books or watch a certain # of movies. This isn’t homework. Read these books slowly, spread them out and absorb the information at your own pace. The work is important but misinformation undermines any work attempted.
I’m not illogical. I’ve never been more sure of anything in my life than in my navigation of abolition research. I’ve studied and listened and with the facts before me, I know, unequivocally, that abolition is necessary. I recommend you research before talking out of your ass.

Do not misrepresent my words, I will not engage with you when you do so. Educate yourself on abolition and take action.

There’s a reason why Black abolition leaders were murdered, forced out of the countries and now are made to physically sit out the movement. They united the people against the American and Canadian governments which are, at their very core, designed for white supremacy to prosper
When you stand against white supremacy, you’re very literally standing against these countries and it’s core institutions.
Note: The reason I’m not answering questions is bc I’m not as educated as I’d like to be on this topic before I teach it. The people writing the books I’ve linked are much more articulate & educated on this topic than me. I’m sorry for the dismissive nature of my replies.

“Historically, when one looks at efforts to create reforms, they ineveitably lead to more repression.” —Angela Davis in 13th (directed by Ava DuVernay).
