ISBN: 9781583225813

Availability: On Our Shelves

Published: Seven Stories Press - August 5th, 2003

Short, simple, and just repetitive enough, this primer on prison abolition covers all the basics but never makes you feel talked down to. The prose is patient and kind and meets you where you are (especially if where you are is at the beginning). It might not convert your conservative uncle...but that's where you come in.
