queeranarchism: Luna Syenite imagines alternatives to policing. She added a post in response to this becoming a very popular post:I’m glad this is resonating with people! Wow! Folks who are interested in this topic and want to learn more should follow the blog: http://www.usprisonculture.com/blog/ (or @prisonculture on Twitter) - The author, Mariame Kaba, is not affiliated with these posters in any way but she is a brilliant community organizer and I was introduced to this work through her writing and public speaking on abolition and Transformative Justice. Please follow her work and organizations like Project NIA, Survived and Punished, Critical Resistance, INCITE! Women and GNC People of Color Against Violence. I also facilitate a workshop called “Transformative Justice: Alternatives to Policing and Prisons” with Collective Against White Supremacy - if you’re interested in learning more, register here if you’re in Michigan: https://goo.gl/forms/TizlgGSPQaPKEwvv1 (though no one affiliated with or working in law enforcement for reasons having to do with power and openness in the space). If you’re not in Michigan, e-mail: luna.p.syen@gmail.com If you are inspired by these posters, please get connected to an anti-racist, anti-oppressive organization that is working to transform the world we live in. Show up and do the work it would take to make any of this possible. I regret that I can’t answer everyone’s questions, but here is a link to a post with some of the answers: https://www.facebook.com/luna.syenite/posts/2186195438292031 -- source link
