We can’t talk about liberation without centering abolition: dismantling and defunding systems, practices, and institutions causing harm. We need to defund harmful systems, reinvesting those funds into our communities and how community care works as an alternative to the criminal justice system, abusive policing, and state-sanctioned violence. Learn how these institutions fuel homelessness, how youth are affected via the cradle-to-prison pipeline, and how dismantling and defunding structurally violent institutions holds the key to thoughtful funding for the social service programs our communities need to achieve liberation.
