To be abolitionist is to be anti-imperialist. It means standing against all forms of militarized state violence, prisons—especially open-air ones—and other carceral (il)logics. Solidarity to the people of Palestine, Columbia, & all those resisting state terror. #FreePalestine 🇵🇸
B/t the news of eight Asian women killed in GA today, 33 Vietnamese immigrants deported yesterday, the sharp spike in anti-Asian hate crimes, & decades of imperialism, this country is anti-Asian to its core. Sending love & solidarity to all of our Asian and Asian-American family
ANNOUNCEMENT: MAJOR UPDATE ON EVICTIONS DUE TO NON-PAYMENT IN DURHAM CO COURTS
Earlier this week Chief District Court Judge Pat Evans issued a administrative order temporarily postponed eviction cases due to non-payment until May 1st.
quickly, what this means (thread):
1/6 Another Black woman was kidnapped and held by the state, which resulted in her death. On January 19, Brittany Kittrell died 4 days after being arrested and placed in Durham County Jail on a $5000 bond. #DurhamCountyJailKills#BrittanyKittrell#SayHerName
Let’s make this clear: “Abolition is about presence, not absence. It’s about building life-affirming institutions” - Ruth Wilson Gilmore. Abolition is about investing in each other and our right to joy.
Our purpose with this townhall was to push for transparency and inclusion in the conversations we’ve been having with administration for months. Our goals are the same: disclose, divest, disband.
In light of the BCAP town hall: Duke Mutual Aid fully supports @DukeBCAP and police abolition, specifically of the Duke and Durham police departments. Anything less reinforces white supremacy and causes immense harm to our community.
Our hearts are with the family of Brittany Kittrell. Being unable to make bail should never cost someone their life. Donate at https://t.co/eBF3DU9Ry5 to support the families of those taken by Durham County Jail. #BrittanyKittrell#DurhamCountyJailKills#5000ToLife#EndMoneyBail
