Abolition and the State: Responses Vol. 2

A View from the Global South

By Maria Thomas

This zine by Interrupting Criminalization's Beyond Do No Harm Network Fellow Maria Thomas offers reflections in dialogue with Interrupting Criminalization’s Abolition and the State: A Discussion Tool. You will find questions from the original discussion tool threaded through this one — questions which are sometimes met with musings, and sometimes with more questions, and with reflections shaped by a life criss-crossing borders imposed, and by the conviction that, as Ruth Wilson Gilmore teaches us, "abolition must be red, green, and international."
