This month, I’d love you to write a longette about the abolition of slavery (historical or modern) OR the abolition movement against criminalisation and carceral *justice (prisons and police) in favour of social and transformative justice.
It is possible to replace police and punishment with better social support networks to prevent the issues that cause crime in the first place (poverty, marginalisation), and community-based ways to prevent and respond to harm. How could that look?
You’ll find all the Longette instructions and examples here:
