Build Your Abolitionist Capacity

Mariame Kaba and Andrea Ritchey are esteemed elders in the world of abolition, who launched an organization called Interrupting Criminalization (IC) about five years ago. Their work has been prolific, including research, reports, zines, podcasts, convenings, webinars, books, and much more. The overall focus: ending criminalization, policing, and punishment. 

In an act of incredible generosity typical of IC, they've pulled together the vast resources they've accumulated over the last five years into a free, self-study, independent study curriculum. Four topic areas are divided into three 'semesters'; any of which you can enter anytime, depending on your interest:

• Divestment from Policing & Investment in Building Safer, Liberatory Communities

• Transformative Justice

• Abolition Journalism

• Labor and Abolition

Dive in, learn much, share your insights.
