FREE THEM ALL and Other Abolitionist Thoughts

First things first. Free All Political Prisoners!! Secondly, this episode grants permission for all of us to dream and vision a world beyond policing and prisons. Prisons are American history, and we are yet to a place to recognize and dismantle that reality. Revolutionary Baddies hold a discussion surrounding the many many ways our capitalist determines who is punished and who are not. Through the decades of brainwashing propaganda regarding the benefits of police and prisons, combined with the capitalist opportunities of the private prison industry, plus our malapportioned government system has led to a recipe of injustice. Slavery still exists legally in the United States- which means our society should know and learn more about the many ways slavery still exists. At the same time, prison abolition is about visioning and implementing new systems and institutions that prioritize humanity. We deserve so much more.Questions for our listenersWhat  is a world without prisons?Links for the show: Season 2.
