This year the theme is “Prison Abolition and Beyond” and is meant to include all locations and instances in which people are held against their will, including jails, immigration detention, juvenile detention facilities, psychiatric wards, and more. The “beyond” portion is intended to include consideration of the abolition of policing as part of the larger mass incarceration system.

As a part of this week, our chapter is hosting a virtual panel discussion on March 4th at 5pm on Zoom with local activists and directly impacted community members. We would like to invite you to join as a panelist.
