What does it mean to fight for a world without mass incarceration and police violence? On today’s show we joined by human rights lawyer, organizer, and author Derecka Purnell to discuss her new book titled "Becoming Abolitionist: Police, Protests, and the Pursuit of Freedom." We reflect together on how capitalism is at the heart of the continued violence at the hands of the police, and what future is possible beyond this system. Join us in exploring the themes from Derecka's book, like the history of slavery, settler colonialism, imperialism, as well as the love at the heart of the struggle.
