Grounding Education in Abolition
Wed, September 1, 2021, 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM PDT
Join us for the first of a fall webinar series for abolitionist educators, celebrating the release of a new toolkit, Lessons in Liberation, by Education for Liberation Network ([link removed]) and Critical Resistance (CR), published by AK Press. ([link removed])
In celebration of the release of “Lessons in Liberation: An Abolitionist Toolkit for Educators” (pre-order here ([link removed]) ), we’re excited to announce this webinar series to support abolition across educational contexts. The first webinar will focus on grounding education in abolitionist praxis.

“Lessons in Liberation” is a collection brought together by the Education for Liberation Network and Critical Resistance to create bridges between abolition and education and to highlight existing organizing efforts. This collection, including the accompanying forthcoming website and discussion guide, offers educators, parents, and young people entry points to build critical and intentional connections to the growing movement for the abolition of the Prison Industrial Complex, particularly in PreK-12 learning contexts.
All webinars will be streamed via YouTube and Facebook. ASL Interpretation will be provided by Certified Deaf Interpreters and Deaf Interpreters. We will also provide CART Captions. Please contact Sheeva (she or they) at
[email protected] (mailto:

Summer Fundraiser Success!
Last month, we put out the call to support CR with a summer gift, and our movement returned the ask! Together we raised $23,000 for our campaigns, projects and movement-building efforts. Thank you so much for making our midyear fundraiser an incredible success. Whether you donated this year or are part of our grassroots donors network, your support is vital.
Every penny keeps our campaigns, national infrastructure, and chapters growing and strong. THANK YOU!
