Thank you, Amy. Your commentary is super insightful. I'm glad I signed up to get these updates and appreciate the article suggestions. I haven't seen 'Our African Roots' but it does sound problematic. I recently watched 'Incarceration Nation' and thought it was one of the most horrific and powerful examples of truth-telling I've ever come across.
We’re on a similar reading journey! It’s not a book, but I recently listened to an amazing and wide-ranging interview with abolitionist Ruthie Wilson Gilmore: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2KcnGrzpwSRrL5wWJ19rn5?si=_jwJdfpSSQW8thXcdu3JAg
Thank you so much - I will definitely check this out. I have still to order Ruthie Wilson Gilmore - but her work is on my reading list!
Prison by any Other Name by Schenwar and Law was a great read if you’re interested!
Thank you so much - I will add it to the reading list!
