520 |a This chapter highlights the racist entwinement of the education and prison system and provides specific recommendations for an antiracist future. A critical review of literature on the intersection of the educational system, prison abolition, and social work reveals several lessons. First, the education system and the prison industrial complex are inextricably linked, which means efforts to abolish the prison system must simultaneously work to transform the education system. Second, social work and abolitionist principles align if they are true to their ideologies, suggesting a need for coalescence. Lastly, the unique roles social workers play between systems and across the life course, coupled with a commitment to antioppressive practices, perfectly position social workers to lead educational system transformation and prison abolition efforts. Social workers must intentionally work toward transforming the education system, abolishing the prison system, and rejecting roles that do not align with the profession’s core values.
