Reposted from @abigail_glasgow I wrote my dream story thanks to @themarshian @harpersbazaarus (and @s_ariza, who knew we would get on) // When it comes to reimagining a world without prisons, who better to visualize an abolitionist present and future, alternatives to incarceration, and other solutions outside of punishment than those who have assumed creativity as their life’ work? // A million thanks to the artists who took the time to share their work and ideas with me: @art4justicefund @lizajessiepeterson @osopepatrisse @crenshawdairymart @richiereseda @creative_acts @sabratw @theactorsgang @major_cause @alexanderlizzy @mellonfoundation @bj_mims @solitarygardens @hough9459 @ucscias @samorapinderhughes @justiceforkeithlamar @letterstokeith @wearesoze @daveentrentman @terrick03 @nyclu @mecosroman
Reposted from @art4justicefund Thanks to @harpersbazaarus and @abigail_glasgow for a fantastic feature, “Art as a Radical Tool for Realizing Abolition”, that shines a light on so many members of the Art for Justice family! 💙💙💙
From the piece: “The collective of artists determined to shift our reliance on carceral punishment through their media has become even more visible over the past few years. Brick by brick, they are—in the words of the Art for Justice Fund’s Helena Huang—“changing the weather … so that there’s more appetite and openness to systemic change.”
The article features the creativity and brilliance of A4J’s beloved partners and friends: @lizajessiepeterson @performingstatistics @dignityandpowernow @voiceoftheexperienced @crenshawdairymart @theactorsgang @mellonfoundation @solitarygardens @centerforartandadvocacy @hough9459 @samorapinderhughes @jesse_krimes @daveentrentman @wearesoze @mecosroman @r.craig.t1 @helenahuang_a4j
🔥🔥🔥🔥 thank you!

Keep masses dumbed down with music on the radio... all part of #newjimcrow @lizajessiepeterson thank you for this critical #literary #memoir about your work with imprisoned #teenagers at #rikers Reading about these young men reminded me why the #bail system must go!! I worked with similar population in #brooklyn #middleschool Many were one step away from prison. A life changing experience.. I gifted this book to a newly appointed judge in juvenile court in Los Angeles and a woman in North Carolina who worked in prisons for 20 years..when she saw prisoners getting younger and younger she went to school became a teacher and got in the classroom. #allday #lizajessiepeterson BRAVO SIS!!!!

Repost from @lizajessiepeterson using @RepostRegramApp - This amazing artist Eric Battle @battlelinesrdrawn drew the animation for my sister's book. These are the two main characters (Damali and Carlos) in her prolific Vampire Huntress 12 book series. He was awarded the LA BANKS award at the 2017 Blerd City (black nerd) conference in Brooklyn. #blerdcity #blackscifi #paranormal #blackauthors #blackcomics #labanks #mybigsister #ilovemysister #sherocks

#Repost @lizajessiepeterson (@get_repost) ・・・ Arrest quotas. The conspiracy, the constant seige, the sytemic racism is real and operating in every hood. These officers risked their careers and lives to reveal this diabolical policy from top brass #racism #policepatrol #staywoke #whitesupremacyisterrorism #conspiracy #blacklivesmatter (at Kew Gardens–Union Turnpike)
