| Sumario: | Part of a special issue on critical resistance to the prison-industrial complex. In an interview, Angela Y. Davis, a tutor at the University of California and prison related activist, discusses the challenge of prison abolition. Subjects addressed include how her own imprisonment affected her political formation; the fundamental principles underlying the contemporary prison abolitionist movement; the International Conference on Penal Abolition; the political challenge of forming a new project of prison abolitionism; how prison abolition necessitates new political language, teachings, and organizing strategies; and how abolition forces people to rethink common assumptions about jurisprudence. |
