How do we abolish the prison industrial complex (PIC)? How do we build robust, sustained campaigns and coalitions that can build power? What do abolitionist strategies look like? How do we win our campaign demands?
Join us online this Thursday, June 29 for a virtual event discussing these questions and more with seasoned abolitionist organizers.
** Building & Winning Abolitionist Campaigns:

** A conversation on developing campaigns for PIC abolition with Rachel Herzing, Judah Schept, and Sharlyn Grace.

When: Thursday, June 29

Who: Seasoned organizers-- Rachel Herzing (CR co-founder & former CR co-director), Judah Schept (Professor in the School of Justice Studies at Eastern Kentucky University), and Sharlyn Grace (founding member of Chicago Community Bond Fund).
What & Why: Speakers will be discussing the ins-and-outs of developing strong campaigns against policing, imprisonment, and sentencing and why, given our particular political and economic conditions and the particular moment we're in, we must build robust campaigns for people power to abolish the PIC.
