Abolitionist Futures invites to you our 2023 Book Club, reading ‘Abolition Revolution’ by Aviah Sarah Day and Shanice  Octavia McBean.

<h2>Join Abolitionist Futures for our autumn 2023 Book Club! We will be reading ‘Abolition Revolution’ by Aviah Sarah Day &amp; Shanice Octavia McBean.</h2>This groundbreaking book is a practical guide and pathway to bringing about revolutionary abolitionist politics in Britain and beyond. It provides much-needed tactics, methods, and conversations to tangibly transform our community organizing. It is suitable for activists already involved in abolitionist organizing that want to deepen their strategies and approaches, as well as those looking for an introduction into resisting police power, systems of criminalization today, and enacting abolitionist futures. <a href="https://abolitionistfutures.com/latest-news/abolition-revolution-now" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Read our recently-published review of the book, here. </a><h3>We will have three sessions for this Book Club, online via Zoom.</h3>Session 1: Tuesday, September 19, 2023 7:30-9:00PM Read pages 3-88 Introduction and Part 1 - The Tools of Police PowerSession 2: Tuesday, October 17, 2023, 7:30-9:00PM Read pages 88-176 Part 2 - Roots In Empire: The History of Criminalisation and Resistance &amp; Part 3 - Systems of Criminalization TodaySession 3: Tuesday, November 21, 2023, 7:30-9:00PM Read pages 176-229 Part 4 - Abolitionist Futures and Part 5 - Symposium: Abolition in the UK Getting the book: If you wish to join but are facing difficulties with purchasing the book, please contact us at the email below.
