Abolition Revolution

Abolition Revolution is a guide to abolitionist politics in Britain, drawing on rich histories of resistance both here and in the colonies, and our own years of organising. This book was always intended to be a conversation with the movement, so now that it’s finally out we would love you to come and celebrate with us.

 

Q&A with the Authors – 6pm

Join the authors, Aviah Sarah Day and Shanice Octavia McBean, for a conversation about carceral feminism, police and state violence, and organising towards an anti-capitalist, abolitionist future. There will be plenty of time for questions and audience contributions.

Joining us will be writers and activists featured in the book including:

Lydia Caradonna of Decrim Now and United Voices of the World Sex Workers Branch

Zahra Bei from No More Exclusions

 

Poetry, Music and Drinks Reception – 7.45pm – 11pm

After the Q&A we are inviting you to join us for a drinks reception where we will have poetry, live music performances and DJs. Delivering the good vibes and hype will be:

Kadeem Marshall-Oxley

Smoked Poets

DJ basura

DJ sadqueersclub

DJ Mica Coca

Drinks will be available for sale.
